    In the follow up to her acclaimed novel Shelter, Sarah Franklin returns to the Forest of Dean, this time exploring what it means to belong to a rural community in a rapidly changing world. Jo grew up in the Forest of Dean, but she was always the one destined to leave for a bigger, brighter future.

    'This atmospheric read is simply beautiful.' Woman & Home

    How can home be found, when you are lost?

    When two very different women find themselves sharing a home, they must confront their pasts in order to work out who they each are, and how they will survive.

    Disillusioned with her high-flying London career, Jo has returned to the remote rural community of her childhood. Taking over her parents' beloved butcher shop, she works hard to save the family legacy, hoping to
    also save herself.

    Tessa has returned too, fleeing a chance of happiness to come to terms with a life filled with secrets and shame. Now her livelihood as a farrier is under threat from a mysterious and debilitating condition.

    How to Belong is a delicate, honest portrayal of unexpected friendship, the power of memory and what it truly
    means to come home.
