Set against the vibrant backdrop of 1960s Liverpool, Lyn Andrews' WHERE THE MERSEY FLOWS is a powerful and heartwarming saga about the transformative power of friendship and the struggle for independence.
For Leah Cavendish, life is one of luxury and isolation, while her friend Nora O'Brian is forced to navigate the harsh realities of poverty and hardship. When Nora's circumstances become unbearable, Leah takes a stand, defying her family's expectations to move into a house in Liverpool's docklands, alongside Nora and her impoverished family.
As Leah becomes embroiled in the lives of her new neighbours, she must confront the harsh realities of their world and the complexities of her own relationships. With its vivid portrayal of a pivotal moment in British history, WHERE THE MERSEY FLOWS is a moving and thought-provoking novel that explores the human spirit and the enduring bonds of friendship.
