Vianne Rocher has settled down. Lansquenet-sous-Tannes, the place that once rejected her, has finally become her home. With Rosette, her 'special' child, she runs her chocolate shop in the square, talks to her friends on the river, is part of the community. Even Reynaud, the priest, has become a friend.
But when old Narcisse, the florist, dies, leaving a parcel of land to Rosette and a written confession to Reynaud, the life of the sleepy village is once more thrown into disarray.
The arrival of Narcisse's relatives, the departure of an old friend and the opening of a mysterious new shop in the place of the florist's across the square - one that mirrors the chocolaterie, and has a strange appeal of its own - all seem to herald some kind of change: a confrontation, a turbulence - even, perhaps, a murder...

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
A tale that ensnares the senses and makes you long to find the village, to taste the chocolate and listen to the whispers on the wind.
A friend of mine spotted this book in her hotel, and since she knows I'm a BookCrosser, she brought it home with her to give it to me... so now it's in Belgium!
Can't wait to read it, loved "Chocolat".
