The confectioner's tale

Madeleine, Laura2016
Large Print
At the famous Patisserie Clermont in Paris, 1910, a chance encounter with the owner's daughter has given one young man a glimpse into a life he never knew existed: of sweet cream and melted chocolate, golden caramel and powdered sugar; of pastry light as air. But it is not just the art of confectionery that holds him captive, and soon a forbidden love affair begins... Almost eighty years later, an academic discovers a hidden photograph of her grandfather as a young man with two people she has never seen before. Scrawled on the back of the picture are two words: 'Forgive me'. Unable to resist the mystery, she begins to unravel the story of two star-crossed lovers and one irrevocable betrayal...
