About this listen

 As the only female cabinet maker in the valley in 1935, Frankie Redfern is unusual. She faces prejudice even from her own mother. But she's content working for her father, and is unwilling to give up her independence or the work she loves for marriage.

When her husband falls gravely ill, Frankie's mother takes over, causing serious trouble for her daughter. And her cousin, an unscrupulous local builder, starts to help her for his own reasons.

Jericho Harte has never met a woman he wanted to marry until he bumps into Frankie on the moors. When she comes to him the next day with an extraordinary suggestion, it seems a marriage of convenience might suit them both. Or could their relationship become more than that?

But Frankie's problems worsen as her father goes missing from hospital. Is there more to his illness than met the eye?

Can Frankie and Jericho help uncover the truth and put an end to the danger she's in before it's too late?

Critic Reviews

This is that rare thing, a pacy page-turner with a ripping plot and characters you care about . . . [Anna Jacobs is] especially big on resourceful, admirable women. Great stuff!
Anna Jacobs' books are deservedly popular. She is one of the best writers of Lancashire sagas around
[Anna Jacobs' books have an] impressive grasp of human emotions

Another beautiful, emotive novel & series by Anna Jacobs. I can’t get enough of delving into the lives of these strong courageous women & the hardships that were faced for the lower classes. How can we not be grateful for what we have this day and age when generations past have gone through such things.

Beautiful story of determination & the strength of love

Love how each book introduces a new person but there are the same characters ( Charlie , Todd ,Sargent Deamer, Wilf , ext) throughout several series of books ! I will miss them !

Familiar characters in the last 6-7 books!
