The Little Teashop of Lost and Found
What you need to know before your trail
Alice Rose is a foundling, discovered on the Yorkshire moors above Haworth as a baby. She was adopted but sadly has an awful step mother and so she struggles to find her place in the world. To escape, she bakes and when she’s mixing cake dough or enjoying the scene of baking, she escapes into a world of her own.
One day, she returns to Haworth and so decides to take up baking again to help her – and even takes over a run-down little teashop and dreams of setting up an afternoon tea emporium.
Luckily she soon makes friends, including a Grecian god-like neighbour, who help her both set up home and try to solve the mystery of who she is. There are one or two last twists in the dark fairytale of Alice’s life to come . . . but can she find her happily ever after?

Haworth, Yorkshire
Known as Bronte country, this delightful tale has a strong Bronte connection, a search for a person’s past and true self and lots of yummy recipes!
A place to visit HAS to be the Bronte Parsonage
The author writes:
While Haworth and the beautiful moorland surroundings exist, Doorknockers Row, Blackdog Moor and all the characters portrayed with the novel are purely the produce of my own imagination.
“I became obsessed with the Bronte family and Haworth, I knew that it was extremely unlikely she’s tiptoed up the step of the Parsonage in the middle for the night and laid me there, in the expectation that he and Nessa would shortly swing by and scoop me up”
