I don't know what exactly about this book drew me in, it just did. I loved all the references to the garden and the bittersweet story.

I have not read either of Buchan's other books, but had given Revenge of the Middle-Aged Woman to my sister some time ago. I rememberd the title when it was referenced on the cover of this book and decided to try it. I plan to read the others as soon as I get an opportunity.
