I first met Vanessa McCausland in early 2020 when her debut, "The Lost Summers of Driftwood" was released by Vanessa McCausland. A hauntingly beautiful story that has stayed with me ever since. . .

Following that meeting, Vanessa has gone on to write another two novels: "The Valley of Lost Stories" and now a brand new novel called "The Beautiful Words."

Only just released, "The Beautiful Words" is set between Sydney's northern beaches and a remote island off the Tasmanian coast.

A book that is as romantic as it is dark, as evocative as it is compelling. Exploring friendship and betrayal, love and forgiveness, the stories we tell ourselves and the healing power of words.

A brilliant new novel, by a born storyteller.
