Harriet Evans is the author of thirteen bestselling novels, most recently The Beloved Girls, a Richard and Judy Book Club Selection and the Sunday Times Top Ten bestseller The Garden of Lost and Found, which won Good Housekeeping's Book of the Year. She lives in Bath with her family and writes full time, when not distracted by her children, other books, gardening, her jumpsuit collection and star-gazing.
An absolute triumph, The Treasures is an absorbing, richly imagined tale of one family’s beginnings, and the fates and fortunes that ricochet down through generations. Evans’ characters are built to love and root for, while her sense of period and place is impeccable. I was gripped and transported by the lives of Alice and Tom, and I can’t wait for the next instalment in this brilliant new series. -- Emma Stonex
