About this listen
"The narration by Marisa Calin is once again spot on perfection from intonation, to pronunciation to accents she gets and A+ and her portrayal of Xanthe is an absolute treasure." (The Reading Frenzy)
The second audiobook in a bewitching series "brimming with charm and charisma" that will make "fans of Outlander rejoice!" (Woman's World Magazine)
New York Times best-selling author Paula Brackston returns to the Found Things series with Secrets of the Chocolate House.
After her adventures in the 17th century, Xanthe does her best to settle back into the rhythm of life in Marlborough. She tells herself she must forget about Samuel and leave him in the past where he belongs. With the help of her new friends, she does her best to move on, focusing instead on the success of her and Flora’s antique shop.
But there are still things waiting to be found, still injustices needing to be put right, still voices whispering to Xanthe from long ago about secrets wanting to be shared.
While looking for new stock for the shop, Xanthe hears the song of a copper chocolate pot. Soon after, she has an upsetting vision of Samuel in great danger, compelling her to make another journey to the past.
This time, she'll meet her most dangerous adversary. This time, her ability to travel to the past will be tested. This time, she will discover her true destiny. Will that destiny allow her to return home? And will she be able to save Samuel when his own fate seems to be sealed?

The story is a further insight into Xanthe as her 'Spinner' gift and skill grows while she navigates her new life in the little market town of Marlborough, Wiltshire with her beloved but ailing Mum.
I enjoy the craftsmanship of the author in her ability to show me this area of Britain across the centuries, from a modern viewers perspective. I sometimes find Xanthe's young-adult thought processes and immaturity a bit tiresome but on the whole enjoy this book series which keeps me (at aged 52) thoroughly engaged.
Another enchanting tale
