For Lucy, the chance to go to Italy offers more than just gardens, as Lake Como is where her father lives and the last time she saw him was when she was just a teenager. Recently married Helen and her wealthy husband have just moved into the Old Rectory. With her husband spending so much time away from home, Helen throws herself into caring for the garden. But Helen needs help-and friends-and so she decides to take the plunge and join the local Garden Club. Conrad isn't the least bit interested in gardening.

Reluctantly, Conrad agrees to accompany him. "Anything for a peaceful life," he concedes-but a peaceful life is the last thing any of them are in for.
