Discover the feel good read of the year by bestselling author Ruth Hogan
Recently widowed Venetia Hamilton Hargreaves is left with a huge house, a bank balance to match and an uneasy feeling that she’s been sleepwalking through the last fifty years.
Buying the dilapidated Phoenix Ballroom and with it a community drop-in centre could be seen as reckless, but Venetia’s generosity, courage and kindness provide a refuge for an array of damaged and lonely people.
As their stories intertwine, long-buried secrets are revealed, missed opportunities seized and lives renewed – the Phoenix lives up to its name.

Ruth Hogan studied English and Drama at Goldsmiths College and went on to work in local government. A car accident and a subsequent run-in with cancer convinced her finally to get her act together and pursue her dream of becoming a writer. The result was her debut novel – The Keeper of Lost Things, which went on be a global bestseller. She is now living the dream (and occasional nightmare) as a full-time author, along with her husband and rescue dogs in a rambling Victorian house stuffed with treasure that inspires her novels.
