From the beloved and best-selling Anna Jacobs comes a new Lancashire-based saga.

Lancashire, 1930: Leah Turner's father has been killed in an accident at the laundry, and since her mother died years ago it falls to her to become sole provider for her little sister. But women's wages are half those of men, and pawning the few belongings she has left will keep their vicious rent collector at bay for only a few weeks, so even if she finds a job, they'll lose their home.

Out of the blue, Charlie Willcox, the local pawnbroker, offers her a deal. His brother Jonah, an invalid since being gassed in the Great War, needs a wife. Charlie thinks Leah would be perfect for the job.

The idea of a marriage of convenience doesn't please Leah, but she finds Jonah agreeable enough, and moving with him to the pretty hamlet of Ellindale may be the only chance of a better life for her sister. But other people have plans for the remote Pennine valley, and the two sisters find themselves facing danger in their new life with Jonah. Can the three of them ever look to a brighter future?

Anna Jacobs has done her homework. We think things are bad today, and for some they are. But most of us have at least enough to eat, even if it isn't what we'd really like. We also have things like indoor plumbing and our 12 year olds don't need to work.
This is a story of a young girl who needs to take over the reins much too young and looks after her little sister. She is always just shy of losing the one room they live in. A pawn shop owner likes her pluck and offers a proposition that she marry his brother, who was badly wounded in WWI. She likes him and agrees, knowing she doesn't love him but that he is a good man and will be good to her and her little sister. He is not physically strong but does have talents and the two forge a very workable marriage and they realize together how much they can benefit the village of Ellendale, bringing much needed jobs to the people. There is some excitement and a murder attempt which is a place not to stop. The reader is one who has grown on me. She certainly knows dialects which for me is a plus. She was the perfect reader for this book. I'm about to begin the next book in the series.

Totally engaging
