Book description
When Bernard Walsh moved his family from Bolton to Liverpool he did
not expect the past to pursue him. But then Theresa Nolan,
consumptive, angry and bent on revenge, arrived in the city and
settled within three miles of Bernard's new home.
While Theresa wrought havoc from the Mersey to the moorlands of
Lancashire, two innocent children trod paths separated by fate yet
joined by blood. Against a backdrop of dissent and violence, the two
young girls began to wend their often troubled routes towards the
tranquillity and comradeship of the Corner House.
