A Scottish historical saga of duty and dreams from Sunday Times bestselling author Evelyn Hood! Perfect for fans of Katie Flynn and Val Wood
When everything changes, will her family fall apart or rally together?
Paisley, Scotland, 1976
Thirty-five-year-old Rachel Carswell is devastated by her father's death. He was her anchor; her relationship with her prickly mother has always been strained. While clearing his belongings, her Aunt Chrissie reveals a long-hidden secret: Rachel was adopted as a baby during the Second World War. Shocked and betrayed, Rachel cannot understand why the truth was kept from her. Though her mother and husband, Martin, urge her to move on, Rachel is haunted by questions about her birth mother.
Only her daughter Fiona supports her search, but when their efforts stall, Rachel tries to refocus on family life. Months later, everything changes when she is contacted by Cara, the twin sister she never knew existed.
Warm and open despite her own troubled past, Cara draws Rachel in-but her arrival deepens existing tensions. As Fiona's risky bid for independence strains the family further, Rachel must confront painful truths when she finally comes face to face with her past.
Storytelling at its best, Evelyn Hood is the original bestselling Scottish saga writer
