About the Book
Secrets of the Shell Sisters
“That’s like believing in Father Christmas,” he said.
“Or mermaids,” she replied, gravely.
Meet the Morgans. Three very different sisters, who each blame themselves for their mother’s mysterious disappearance. 

Now over forty years on, they’re in crisis.

Cassandra – the eldest – runs the family’s cliffside hotel. But the business is in trouble, and a secret from the past seems determined to resurface.

Greer – the youngest – walked away from a glittering career to live alone in London. Now she has no choice but to return to the family home – but what kind of welcome can she expect.

And Orla – the middle sister – whose obsessive shell collecting and messages from the ‘sea-people’ dominate her life. But Orla knows things. She knows Greer is coming home to a new future, that Cassandra’s dark secret will change their lives and their mother never really left at all. 

And there’s another secret, something they all share …but of course, nobody’s telling.





About the Author 
Adrienne Vaughan writes spellbinding, page-turning romantic suspense.
Her Heartfelt Series − The Hollow Heart, A Change of Heart and Secrets of the Heart – is set on an island off Ireland’s west coast and features a feisty investigative journalist, and her irresistible West Highland terrier. Adrienne studied at the Dublin College of Journalism and loves animals, especially dogs.

Her collection of short stories and poetry, Fur Coat & No Knickers was shortlisted for the Irish Carousel Prize for Anthology and her WWII short story, Dodo's Portrait, was shortlisted for the Colm Toíbín International Short Story Award at the Wexford Literary Festival.

Secrets of the Shell Sisters is the second in a series of sweeping family dramas, each with a touch of Irish magic.

All her books are heart-warming, uplifting reads, featuring her trademark gripping style, and laugh out loud moments.

Adrienne, husband Jonathan, and two cocker spaniels divide their time between rural Leicestershire, the Wicklow mountains, and coastal South Devon. Agatha Christie – the cat – takes care of things while they are away.
PS: Adrienne’s keeping everything crossed there's still time to realise her ambition to be a Bond girl.
