When the Templeton family takes up residence in an imposing
and long-empty manor in the countryside of Victoria,
Australia, the locals begin to buzz with gossip. The seven
Templetons moved from England and seem unusual, peculiar
even-especially when they begin to lead tours through the
stately home while dressed in period costume. No one is more
intrigued by the family than their neighbors, single mother
Nina Donovan and her son, Tom. Though they try to keep their
distance from the often shocking Templeton dramas, Nina and
Tom find their lives unexpectedly entwined with this
enigmatic family, much to the delight of Gracie, the
youngest Templeton daughter. Then one day, a tragedy tears
them all apart. In the grand estate, the stage is set for
years of betrayal and heartbreak, love and affection, to be
revealed-and, perhaps, resolved-as the Templetons try to
make amends. At Home with the Templetons is Monica
McInerneyrs"s best book yet-a captivating and moving story
that spans two decades, illuminating the perils and
pleasures of love, friendship, and family. Look for special
