Book Description
1906 Lady Elizabeth "Libby" Sinclair, with her love of microscopes and nature, isn't favored in society. She flees to the beautiful Isles of Scilly for the summer and stumbles into the dangerous secrets left behind by her holiday cottage's former occupant, also named Elizabeth, who mysteriously vanished. Oliver Tremayne--gentleman and clergyman--is determined to discover what happened to his sister, and he's happy to accept the help of the girl now living in what should have been Beth's summer cottage . . . especially when he realizes it's the curious young lady he met briefly two years ago, who shares his love of botany and biology. But the hunt for his sister involves far more than nature walks, and he can't quite believe all the secrets Beth had been keeping from him. As Libby and Oliver work together, they find ancient legends, pirate wrecks, betrayal, and the most mysterious phenomenon of all: love.

Book Description
The Isles of Scilly are one of Britain's best kept secrets. We want to keep it that way, so, apart from you, we are not going to tell anybody else about them. Please promise not to share this with friends, family, contacts, colleagues, perfect strangers and so on. Unless, of course, you are confident they will buy the book. If that's the case, spread the word. St Mary's, the other Saints Agnes and Martin's, along with Tresco and brave, battered Bryher offer the most stunning of holidays. Once bitten, you will be hooked. Forever. There are other, uninhabited islands in this archipelago nearly thirty miles off the coast of Land's End. Visit them as well. This book charts a family's ten years of visits. They are, they admit, very much newbies when compared to many regular holiday takers to Scilly. But, as the children have grown, the Peters' family have enjoyed so much, discovered so many aspects to the islands, tried so many new experiences, that they just have to share them with you. (Who, remember. they have carefully selected from the millions seeking to buy this book. If that's not an obligation to part with your cash, I don't know what is.) Learn about the individual characters of the different islands, share in the triumphs and disasters this ordinary family have experienced. Discover the location of the world's best tuna sandwiches, find out about touring the main island by golf cart, or how to appear on Scilly Radio and get your own favourite song wrecked by a local DJ. Learn a bit about the locals who live on this tropical paradise, somehow to be found in Northern Europe. The Isles of Scilly truly are Britain's most amazing islands, indeed, the word 'Britain' could easily be swapped for Europe or even 'The World'. This cheery read is perfect for anybody planning a holiday to Scilly, a couple of weeks, a short break or even a day trip (yes, it is possible). Equally, for those who simply enjoy finding out about their country in a bright and light-hearted way, read on and you might find next year's holiday plans sorted.
