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.
