About this listen
Emma Appleby's arrival in the County Durham village of Tow Law is sudden and mysterious, provoking deep suspicion in the locals. And because she has a child with her, seemingly out of marriage, they want nothing to do with her - except for pub landlord Mick Castle.
When Emma opens an academy and sets herself up in competition with the local school, she provokes a savage response from the community. But she will not be deterred - even when her past catches up with her and Mick is forced to choose between family and love.

Really enjoyable novel
This is a gentle breeze of a novel. No surprises just a great story, easy on the mind and strong on historical authenticity.

A good Background Story
Probably enjoy reading the book rather than listen on audio, but still a good book.
The narrator is not too bad, she reads in good clear precise UK English & tries well when she changes vocals to interpret the different characters.
I will look for other stories by this author in Whyspersynce so I can enjoy reading along whilst a narrator reads the book. All the rage now.

Very good book
Love the feminist view from back in the day. I like tha thought of women sticking up for themselves, still do. Wish there had been more at the end, next book? Lives... Such webs we weave. So we'll written, liked Julia narrating but am an Annie Groves fan also. Thank You
