The Violin Maker’s Secret
The brand new book from the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Lost Bookshop!
On any given day, there are thousands of items slowly gathering dust in the Lost and Found of Heathrow Airport. Unknown to anyone, hidden among the clutter, is a very special object that can change the fortunes of those who possess it – a violin of rare beauty and power.
Now, as if by chance, it has fallen into the hands of three strangers…
Baggage claim agent Devlin, retired teacher Walter, and appraiser Gabrielle have nothing in common, but can these three unlikely guardians unlock the secrets of the violin?
With heartfelt moments, unexpected connections, and a mystery that lingers long after the final page, this is Evie Woods at her very best.
Evie Woods
In the windswept quiet of Ireland’s west coast, where history lingers in the air and stories hide between cobblestones, Evie Woods found her voice. Writing under a name as lyrical as the prose she’s known for, Woods invites readers into worlds where magic slips gently into the mundane, where lost letters find their way home, and old bookshops carry secrets through time.
Her breakout novel, The Lost Bookshop, didn’t just make an impression—it became a global sensation. Topping bestseller lists from The Sunday Times to The Wall Street Journal and selling over a million copies, the novel seamlessly weaves historical fiction with magical realism, exploring the invisible threads that connect past and present. Readers across more than 30 languages have followed its timeless journey, drawn in by Woods’ signature style: warm, wistful, and quietly transformative.
