‘I felt as if this book was my addiction . . . A truly remarkable author’ – 5-star reader review
At eighteen, Cathie longs for more than life as a settler in the Australian bush. So when her uncle offers her the chance to send her to England, she grabs the opportunity with both hands and runs away from her family. But little does she know that he is using her to get revenge on his sister, Liza.
Attacked at the docks in Liverpool, Cathie takes refuge with the man who saved her, a man who has his own troubles. But as she slowly regains her memory and meets her Lancashire relatives, she must confront the legacy of her mother’s past.
And even in 1876, the same wealthy families who forced her mother to leave Lancashire are still powerful enough to threaten Cathie’s happiness and safety – as well as that of anyone close to her . . .

Brilliant, no one can match her writing ability - Lancashire Lass is Anna Jacobs' new novel. I have just finished reading it, couldn't put it down, it held me absorbed on every page.
