Description

Laura Page returns to her family's home in Welwick, a remote village in Holderness, to uncover the secrets of her mother Susannah's past. Born out of wedlock and growing up in poverty, Susannah was shunned by the local community due to her illegitimate status as "nobody's child". Her father, the landowner's son who had fathered her, refused to acknowledge her, leaving Susannah to face hardship from a young age. As Laura becomes increasingly curious about her mother's life, she begins to wonder if she will ever discover the truth about her father and whether they might be reunited. This heartwarming story of triumph over adversity is suited to readers of sagas and stories of family secrets and redemption. Val Wood's novel explores themes of identity, family history and the power of love to overcome even the most difficult circumstances.
