Her childhood nearly destroyed her. Only the magic of the garden could save her.
Poppy was six years old when she was rescued from her abusive mother and taken to her grandparents' farm to recover. There, under a wide South African sky, Poppy succumbs to the magic of their garden. Slowly, her memories fade and her wounds began to heal.
But as Poppy grows up into a strange, fierce and beautiful young woman, her childhood memories start to surface. And then a love affair with a married man across the valley explodes her world...
Miranda Sherry was seven when she began writing stories. She then had a number of jobs, including puppeteer, bartender and musician, before becoming a full-time writer. She lives in Johannesburg and is the author of Black Dog Summer (Head of Zeus, 2013).
