Сьюзен Виггс написала книгу “Яблоневый сад”, в которой читатель погружается в пышную изобилие округа Сонома. Это история о сестрах, дружбе и невидимых связях истории, которые переплетаются, как заклинание вокруг нас. Тесс Делани зарабатывает на жизнь возвращением украденных сокровищ их законным владельцам. Она любит освещать историю, заполняя пустоты в сердцах людей рассказами об их семейных наследиях. Но в собственной истории Тесс есть пробелы: отец, которого она никогда не встречала, и мать, которая провела больше времени в путешествиях, чем со своей дочерью. Затем Доминик Росси появляется на пороге магазина Сан-Франциско, который Тесс надеется купить, и говорит ей, что дедушка, которого она никогда не знала, находится в коме. Тесс была названа в его завещании, чтобы унаследовать половину “Белла Виста”, яблоневого сада площадью в сто акров в волшебном городе Сономы под названием “Архангел”. Остальное завещано Изабель.
