# The Lost Château: A secret lies behind every door in this emotional and sweeping new novel from the Sunday Times bestselling

In Dinah Jefferies's The Lost Château series, a young woman travels to the Dordogne region of France in 1936. Thirza Caruthers arrives at the faded Chateau Rousseau to care for her great-aunt, bound by a promise she does not yet fully understand. The crumbling estate, with its tangled gardens and shuttered rooms, holds decades of hidden history waiting to surface.

As the shadow of war falls across Europe, Thirza begins to peel back layers of family lore. Forbidden love, devastating betrayal, and a child's mysterious disappearance years ago are just a few of the secrets concealed behind the chateau's doors. The series weaves romance, grief, and resilience into a sweeping historical family saga.
