Publisher's Synopsis
Secrets darker than chocolate... Manchester's Champion Street Market is the hub of a lively 'fifties community. Everyone loves Aunty Dot's homemade sweets and chocolates - and everyone loves Aunty Dot: the smiling woman has provided a loving home for many a troubled child. Lizzie Pringle would do anything for her foster mother - even taking on local sweet manufacturer and bully, Cedric Finch. Until she falls for his son, Charlie... Dena can't believe that Barry Holmes would hurt her beloved daughter: he's been like a favourite uncle to the little girl, but there's no smoke without fire, and chocolate can be bitter, as well as sweet...
