Book
blurb
When Sophie lands her dream job as a reporter on a Yorkshire
newspaper, nothing is going to get in the way of her success. But this is the nineteen
sixties and she has reckoned without the attentions of office Romeo Steve and a
frantic phone call from her mother after eight years’ silence.
Before they can meet, Frances has a serious accident
leaving Sophie to discover for herself the truth about the past. Was her father
the all-American officer she dreamt of when she was a child, or someone far
more sinister? Her search leads to the mysterious
David who uncovers a shocking scandal from before she was born.
Torn between her secret love for Steve and her
desire to know who she really is, Sophie follows David to find her father.
Only when faced with the startling truth can she
finally accept the tragedy that blew her life apart and begin a different kind
of future.
