“My heart is broken and I am dying inside”

Six unconnected strangers type these words into an internet search engine and start the journey of a lifetime. Directed to The House of the Wellspring website, each begins a conversation with the mysterious warden, to discover whether the waters of the Wellspring, a source of powerful healing can heal their unbearable hurts.


A journey of self discovery and healing awaits them, but will the warden grant them their wish?


Their fate lies in the hands of the Warden


Sara: agoraphobic artist whose recent life has dealt her more trauma than she can recover from.


Gareth: transformed from gung-ho policeman to shattered recluse by more than a bullet.


Alex: academic whose promising career was ruined first by a convincing fraud and then by his crippling loss of self belief.


Ginny: sensitive rebel daughter of a Polish tycoon hospitalised for years for her belief in faeries.


Elizabeth: former nun who lost her vocation only days away from her final vows.


Mark: famous faith healer whose gift left him when he needed it the most.


Invited to spend some days at the House of the Wellspring each of the strangers comes with the hopes of coming away whole again. But where is the Warden they all longed to meet and where is the Wellspring they all came to find?

When I first read this I was faced with a dilemma; It is such a page turner that I couldn't read fast enough and yet at the same time I did not want it to finish.

You become part of the story and part of the journey and you feel so connected to the characters as their journey unfold. Simply fantastic.
