Description

In a small English market town, Suzanna Peacock opens an eclectic shop combining a coffee bar with vintage treasures and handmade goods, hoping to escape a stagnant marriage and discover a life of her own. As the Peacock Emporium draws an unlikely community of customers and friends, Suzanna is forced to confront the family secrets, inherited expectations, and long-buried grief that have shaped her sense of belonging. Moving between the 1960s and the early twenty-first century, with connections reaching as far as Buenos Aires, this emotionally layered novel explores love, loss, identity, and the complicated legacies families leave behind.
