Summary

The First World War is almost over when nurse Olivia Jones meets dashing American soldier, Tom O'Hagan, and they propose to marry.

But Tom is dead by the time Olivia finds herself pregnant. Just hours old, their daughter Ruby is brutally removed from Olivia by her disgusted father and secretly taken to be raised in a convent in north Wales.

At 14, Ruby is beautiful, intelligent, and wilful - and delighted to be chosen by the wealthy Emily Dangerfield, who lives in a grand house near Liverpool, as a companion.

But her charmed life there comes to an abrupt end.

Great story but disappointing ending.

Great story with a wonderful narrator who really brought the characters to life. Only disappointment was the ending. Felt rushed at the end and then no real ending to the story.

Very disappointed

I listen to 2 audio books a month and never leave reviews but this was just dreadful. It started off well but is spread over to many years to have a real story.
