“A joy from start to finish.”—Alex Michaelides, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Silent Patient
A beautiful and escapist novel full of heart, for fans of Elin Hilderbrand and readers who love book club fiction.
For sale: Greek cottage. One euro.
Skye MacKinnon is desperate for an escape. When she wins a lottery to buy a run-down cottage on a Greek island for only one euro, Skye jumps at the chance to get out of England and start over. As she unlocks the tattered blue door of her whitewashed new cottage, the sun-kissed sea glinting in the bay outside her windows, Skye immediately feels like she’s found her true home.
Skye and the other lottery winners—the first residents in these houses since the 1940s—form a tight-knit group, finding in one another the strong relationships they were missing in their own lives. When Skye and local contractor Andreas find a set of mysterious letters, they begin to unravel the history of the prior residents, and the truth about life on Folegandros during World War II.
Sweeping, escapist, and full of heart, The House of Hidden Letters reminds us of the importance of human connection. Izzy Broom has written a poignant and hopeful novel for those who have found love and family in unexpected places.

Author
Izzy Broom
Izzy Broom began writing at the age of six. By then, she was also a proficient escape artist, regularly disappearing in department stores or clambering through windows. When she couldn’t physically get away, she turned instead to books, each chapter a door through which she explored the world. Later, Izzy combined these pursuits and became an author of escapist fiction, writing stories about history, humanity, and love in all its forms. She has won several awards and been published into 16 overseas markets. Based in Suffolk, England, Izzy travels widely in search of inspiration – a quest that led her to the Greek island of Folegandros, where her most recent novels are set.
