Swept up in the mystery, Pip is determined to dig into the past, unearthing secrets about an old friend their Mum and Dad dont want to talk about Funny, affecting and beautifully queer, Lavender, Hyacinth, Violet, Yew journeys through one familys efforts to reconcile the past to plant the seeds of a better future.
