Summary

Wiltshire in 1901: Kathleen's family are determined to force her into marriage with a violent man. In desperation she runs away and finds what consolation she can for her lost dreams. Then tragedy strikes, and Kathleen seeks refuge at Honeyfield House, where a charitable bequest has created a hiding place for families in trouble.

Nathan fought in the Great War and is now using his gift for finding lost people as a detective. Taking on the job of finding Kathleen, he is shocked to discover a woman he can love, not the vicious female he was led to expect. Can the two of them make a new life together, or will evil triumph?

Not as good as others

The narrator was fine but I was just not entranced with the story in the way that I have been with many other books by this author.

Terrible narration

Narration is so bad, I couldn’t get past chapter 2. A shame to waste a credit and I normally love Anna jacobs books

Awfal!!!

The Honeyfield Bequest. I am so bored by narrator. have tried a couple of times to listen so as to give narrator, Patience Tomlinson a Chance. it really is spoiling what could be a good book. I have read most of Anna Jacobs books

Sorry Anna I do believe this would be as great as all your other books I have enjoyed. Never got past chapter 7
