The long-awaited new Chocolat novel from the multi-million-copy bestselling author Joanne Harris

A death. A confession. And a little magic...

Vianne Rocher has settled down. Lansquenet-sous-Tannes, the place that once rejected her, has finally become her home. With Rosette, her 'special' child, she runs her chocolate shop in the square, talks to her friends on the river, is part of the community. Even Reynaud, the priest, has become a friend.

But when old Narcisse, the florist, dies, leaving a parcel of land to Rosette and a written confession to Reynaud, the life of the sleepy village is once more thrown into disarray.

The arrival of Narcisse's relatives, the departure of an old friend and the opening of a mysterious new shop in the place of the florist's across the square - one that mirrors the chocolaterie, and has a strange appeal of its own - all seem to herald some kind of change: a confrontation, a turbulence - even, perhaps, a murder...

Industry Reviews

So wise, so atmospheric, so beautifully written

Lansquenet-sous-Tannes is a place of magic and mysteries, and Harris excels in this delicate balance of realism and enchantment. In The Strawberry Thief, we meet old friends and new, uncover long-held secrets and, along the way, explore the nature of guilt, responsibility and love. It will intrigue and charm readers every bit as much as Chocolat

Sometimes you open [a] book, start reading, and find that it's sheer pleasure from start to finish. The Strawberry Thief is a delight

Compelling, captivating, incredibly moving, The Strawberry Thief whirls you into a thrilling world you will never forget. Harris's Vianne is unforgettable and courageous, and Lansquenet-sous-Tannes is depicted with such heart and beautiful detail. A perfect novel that shimmers with brilliance and truth
