Modern Family meets The Durrells in this life-affirming and evocative novel set against the idyllic beauty of the Tuscan countryside.

Stories don't always unfold the way you expect them to...

When 45-year-old Adam inherits a rundown farmhouse and castle in Tuscany from a great uncle he didn't know existed, he quits his job in Manchester to renovate the property. He's thrilled his boyfriend of two years, newly divorced and out-of-the-closet Theo, is joining him. But at the last minute, Theo's children have to come too. And they're hostile to Adam, immune to the beauty of the rural location - and scared of the resident lizards.

As Adam explores the crumbling walls of the castle and sorts through his uncle's possessions, he discovers some dark family secrets. But could they finally allow him to break free from the pain of the past, start building a new family and open up a life of queer joy?

The Castle of Stories is a moving, heartwarming and uplifting novel about modern family in all its forms, what it means to love, and the importance of understanding your own story.

Scott It does come up in search. That's how I know it's already here.

The book has numerous editions. If you are searching by title the one you want may not appear, and you'll have to look at other editions.

The simplest thing to do is search the ISBN.
