Summary

The fourth novel in the Lancashire-based Gibson series by beloved saga writer Anna Jacobs.   

In 1858 Annie Hallam has at last found complete happiness. She has three healthy babies and adores her husband, Frederick. After years of struggling to make a living in the small Lancashire town of Bilsden, Annie knows she deserves to sit back and enjoy her life - after all, she's not yet 40, and still in her prime.   

But worries - at first faint clouds on the horizon - are imminent. Frederick has been looking pale and ill lately. Her brother Tom hasn't moved on after the death of his wife. Rebecca, her half sister, is longing for something more than her work in the salon. And William, her son, isn't happy at university. In spite of Frederick's gentle urging not to take the entire burden of the Gibson family on her shoulders, Annie can't help feeling concerned.

And something much more dangerous is looming - a threat not only to Annie's peace of mind but to her life....

Yet another wonderful story. The narrator really brings it to life, I’m glad they kept the same one.

Loved it!

Another wonderful, unputdownable story in the Gibson family saga, by Anna Jacobs. I'm so glad that I purchased the first four of these audible books as soon as I realised that the free (to subscribers) Spinner's Lake was the fifth, and final, one of the series.
I also now deliberately look for books narrated by Anne Dover as well.
