‘Exquisite… a clear head and shoulders above the rest’ Sunday Independent

1838: when a terrible storm blows up off the Northumberland coast, Grace Darling, the lighthouse-keeper’s daughter, knows there is little chance of survival for the passengers on the small ship battling the waves. But her actions set in motion an incredible feat of bravery that echoes down the century.
1938: when nineteen-year-old Matilda Emmerson sails from across the Atlantic to New England, she faces an uncertain future. Sent away in disgrace, she must stay with her reclusive relative, Harriet Flaherty, a lighthouse keeper on Rhode Island. Once there, Matilda discovers a discarded portrait that opens a window on to a secret that will change her life forever.

This is a beautiful tale about love, honour, and courage. It is a story for mothers, daughters, aunties and grannies. It's a little less nuanced at the end... but I don't want to give spoilers. Imogen Church has just the right voice for the narration. My hat is off to her for accomplishing a good representation of all the different dialects!

A wonderfully woven tale

I absolutely adored this book! The writing and the performance are just excellent. I heard the true story of Grace Darling on a history podcast and this story is just beautiful and should be made into a film!

Love love love!

The narrator was amazing and made it easy to follow as there are time jumps. This is a love story that transcends through time. Great characters, very emotional, will listen to this again to this book.
