Product Description

Twenty-two years ago Emma Grady was wrongfully convicted and sentenced to transportation to Australia where she bore and lost her baby daughter – conceived during a passionate affair with Marlow Tanner. It is now 1885, and Emma has returned to Blackburn. Reunited with Marlow, she has a loving family, yet she is still haunted by the past, unable to forget how her uncle Caleb Crowther ignored her desperate plea to save herself and her tragic first-born.

Crowther curses his niece’s return and also hounds Molly, Emma's estranged daughter.  Molly and her children run away and, contending with hunger, exhaustion and the unwelcome attentions of the men who are drawn to Molly’s dark beauty, their life at times is almost unbearable. But Molly has inherited Emma’s indomitable spirit…

Customer Reviews

Really not that great.
This book didn`t go down so well with me as it did with the other two reviewers. IMO josephine cox tries to be another catherine cookson - and it just doesn`t work....

josephine cox - vagabonds
An excellent finale to the Emma Grady series. This book was so gripping I could not put it down. I was completely lost in the story.

Vagabonds - A truly fantastic read!
Vagabonds - what can I say? This is a truly fantastic read, which concludes the Emma Grady trilogy. Emma's indomitable wit and charm is seen reflected in her daughter. With the true Cox spirit, this book totally hooked me; a truly addictive book!
