Mabel Grey is no stranger to secrets. She has never told her daughter Nora who her father is. Nor has she betrayed any of those who visit the delightful Teacup Cottage – her beloved ceramic shop on Puffin Island where the windows are crooked, the kettle is always on, and visitors can’t help but share their confessions over a second cup of tea. Nora has always respected her mother’s privacy, but when the search to understand her past unveils shocking connections, she realises it’s time to demand a truth or two of her own. Because some secrets were made to be spilled.
