From the author of A Daughter’s Wish comes a gritty tale of one woman’s determination to find a home to call her own, perfect for fans of Dilly Court, Anna Jacobs and Ellie Dean.
Having been given up as a baby, Lorna Robson spends her days working long and tiring hours in her aunt’s hat shop in County Durham. But when she inherits a large property in the city from the grandfather she never knew, her aunt is furious at her for leaving, and tells Lorna not to come back.
Arriving at Snow Hall, Lorna can’t help but fall in love with the dilapidated old house she’s been given. However, with her grandfather’s disreputable family willing to do anything to take the house from her, and no help or money of her own, will Lorna be able to keep Snow Hall and turn this house into a home?
