The Mysterious Bakery on Rue de Paris

From the million-copy Sunday Times bestselling author of The Lost Bookshop comes a heart-warming and magical escape to France…

When Edith (Edie) Lane leaves heartbreak and her lonely life in Ireland behind, she believes she’s headed toward a glamorous new start in Paris. But fortune—or fate—has other plans. Instead of the bright lights of the city, Edie finds herself in the quietly enchanting town of Compiègne, working in a vintage bakery on Rue de Paris that locals swear is touched by magic.

Rumours whisper that the pastries baked within these walls can heal sorrows, spark memories, or change the course of a life with a single bite. Yet the bakery hides secrets of its own, and Edie soon discovers that some ghosts—especially the ones we carry with us—are harder to escape than others.

In the warm glow of the ovens and the scent of fresh croissants, Edie starts to uncover the truth about the bakery, the mysterious baker, and what it really means to find love, courage, and where you truly belong.

Perfect for fans of magical realism, feel-good fiction, and books set in France, The Mysterious Bakery on Rue De Paris is a delectable story of second chances, rediscovering joy, and embracing la vie en rose.
