Another outstanding regional historical saga from the Queen of Lincolnshire-based fiction. A young girl stands only in the cobbled market place of a small Lincolnshire town, bedraggled, soaked through and incredibly afraid. Who is she? Where has she come from and from whom is she running away? Nobody recognizes or cares. Only kindly farmer, Eddie Appleyard, recognises something in the lady that details his heart. Inside a drunken haze and scarcely realising what he's doing, Eddie needs her home even though his better half is a tyrant, who will believe the most detrimental. 'Is this your pretty piece?' Bertha accuses and turns Anna out in to the cold, wet evening. Eddie hides the lady in the hayloft and, later, in a tumbledown shepherd's cottage that becomes her new home. Anna's introduction changes their lives; Eddie's, Bertha's and even that of their young son, Tony, torn between his warring parents and the secret stranger. It will require years for the secrets of Anna's previous life to be discovered, but Bertha bides her time and awaits her moment, little realising the tragedy her vengeance will unleash.
