Synopsis
Walking in the Pyrenees one spring morning the author stumbled upon a magnificent ruined mansion standing on edge of a line of huge cliffs. This title chronicles the original discovery, the attempts to discover its history, and then the years trying to bring it back to life in the face of scepticism from family, friends and Spanish neighbours.
