Steeped in bohemia and music legend, Walnut Tree Island is home to a thriving community of artists and musicians. It is where teenager Mary Star once caught the eye of a rock star about to hit the big time, only to be left with a new baby and a broken heart.

Years later, Mary lives on the houseboat where she raised her daughter and her granddaughter, Jo. But now one of the island's prodigal sons has returned. Oliver Greenwood has inherited Walnut Tree and changes are coming.

Jo hasn't seen Oliver since that glorious, life-changing summer when their idyllic island paradise was shattered. And while the islanders are thrown into a frenzy of speculation over their futures, Oliver's return has opened the wounds of a love she had thought was lost for ever

Beautifully written, featuring a cast of magnetic characters, River of Stars is the captivating new novel from Sunday Times bestselling author, Georgina Moore.
