The uplifting, unforgettable new novel from the acclaimed author of The Reading List

In a small pocket of London, between the houses of No.77 and No.79 Eastbourne Road, lies a neglected community garden.

Once a sanctuary for people when they needed it most, the garden's gate is now firmly closed. And that's exactly how Winston at No.79 likes it - anything to avoid his irritating new next-door neighbour.

But when a mystery parcel drops on Winston's doormat - a curious bundle of photographs of a community garden, his garden, bursting with life years ago - a seed of an idea is planted . . .

Somewhere out there, a secret gardener made a decades-old promise to keep the community's spirit alive. And now it's time for The Twilight Garden to come out of hibernation . . .

Sweeping through the 1970s to a modern corner of London, this is a life-affirming story of small spaces, small pleasures - and a community lost and found.
