Sinossi

Lucia is now rich, happily married, and Mayor of Tilling – but the village gossip is in full swing and Lucia’s arch-rival Miss Elizabeth Mapp is out for revenge. Their epic collisions rock their small society and provide the narrative engines for Benson’s gloriously farcical masterpieces. Will Lucia fall at the final hurdle? Delightfully witty and shamelessly entertaining, this is a fitting finale to the series – E.F. Benson’s ‘au reservoir’!

    Hammond Isle was supposed to be a brief assignment, one contested restoration project on a remote corner of the Pacific, fought over by developers, land trusts, and a community of wary dreamers. Archaeologist Ethan Mallory and project manager Grace Chen arrive as adversaries, each pressured by their own side to claim the future of the island for profit or preservation. 
    Neither expects to unearth the century-old secrets of Margot, a lost figure whose vanished love and coded legacy hold the key to the island’s fate. And neither is prepared for how the windswept bluffs, buried betrayals, and rising storm will bind them, first as rivals in the courtroom, then as partners in negotiation, and finally as lovers caught between the tides of history and hope. 
    As Hammond becomes the flashpoint for conflict, compromise, and the possibility of healing, Ethan and Grace must decide how much of their old loyalties to risk for a new, hard-won future: for the land, for memory, and for each other. In a story alive with haunting landscapes, civic intrigue, and slow-burning romance, Where Deep Love Anchors is a celebration of place, passion, and the courage to keep building, no matter how wild the storm.

    A shiver thrilled my spine at the thought of what might be contained in collections to be kept away from ordinary eyes ...
    London, 1873. Madeleine Brewster's marriage to Dr Lucius Everley should have been the answer to her family's prayers. Lucius is a well-respected collector of natural curiosities - his 'Small Museum' is his life's work, although firmly kept under lock and key. His sister Grace's philanthropic work with fallen women also adds to the Everleys' polished reputation.
