After the death of their artist father, Alex, Brenna and Cordelia Bellwood return to Slate House - the Victorian mansion in the Lake District where they grew up together. But the three siblings have very different memories of being there and of their relationship with their famous father.

For Alex, his passion for art was always overshadowed by his father's fame. For Brenna, life was turned upside down when their mother left them, forcing her to grow up much too quickly. And Cordelia - once the beloved muse of her father - now questions her role after a shocking revelation that threatens the whole family.

Set against the beautiful backdrop of Grasmere, Family Portrait is a lyrical and poignant story showing that the things that tear us apart can also bring us together again.
