In The Beginning… Kitty Cartwright has always solved her problems in the kitchen. Her cookbooks are her life, and there isn’t an issue that Cooking with Aspic can’t fix. Her only wish is that she had a book entitled Rustling Up Dinner When Your Husband Has Left You. Forty Years Later… On Rosemary Lane, Della Cartwright has just opened a very special little bookshop. Not knowing what to do with the hundreds of cookbooks her mother left to her, she now wants to share their recipes with the world – and no amount of aspic will stand in her way. But what will the local residents think of this strange new addition to their little village? One thing’s for sure: Della’s about to find out. Take a trip this summer down Rosemary Lane, and lose yourself in Della’s world of food, family and friends. The perfect read for fans of Trisha Ashley and Carole Matthews.
