The House on Boulby Cliff An impossible garden, perched on a clifftop overlooking the North Sea, sheltered from the wind by a lucky rise in the land. Anything will grow here, so it seems. The ground is blest; love was planted here in the past deeper in the past than we know. It’s a magical place. And the house, isolated, hidden who’s lived here? It was already old when George carried Alice over the threshold in 1910. Rose and her parents made it theirs in 1923. It was the place where Rose grew old and alone. But Rose is more than she seems. How could she be “plain old Rose” with such a vivid ancestry? As for the garden, it flourishes with the seasons burgeons in the summer, draws itself in as winter comes, darkens. But nothing really perishes here. Nothing buried in this ground ever quite dies. Rose and the garden what miracles might such a union conjure?
