What you need to know before your trail

When Frankie stumbles upon an unopened letter from her late mother, she’s delighted to have one last message from her . . . until she reads the contents and discovers the truth about her birth. Brimming with questions, she travels to York to seek further answers from the Mortimer family, but her appearance sends shockwaves through them all.

Meanwhile, Robyn Mortimer has problems of her own. Her husband John has become distant. As for Bunny, she fell head over heels in love with Dave Mortimer when she first arrived in town. However, she can’t help wondering if he’ll still feel the same way about her if he discovers who she really is – and what she did.

As secrets tumble out and loyalties are tested, the Mortimers have to face up to some difficult decisions.

Travel Guide

BookTrail your travel to York

This is a fleeting visit to York as although Frankie heads here to visit her family, once in York, she is with her family and in the nearby fictional village of Willowdene

What we do hear and see of York however is very nice. The White Horse pub where Alison and her mum go to chat, Micklegate, a popular and historical street and of course the famous York Minister. People go here for guidance and to prayer – both of which many of the characters in this book should think of doing!

York is a nice location for  a London girl  to visit, and Frankie appreciates the nice and peaceful surroundings despite the family drama. York is full of history, heritage and had enough of its own family dramas as this is where the two sides of the War of the Roses clashed. Members of the Royal family and the court who clashed during these wars, were systematically killed and their heads put on spikes around the city’s walls. So a past of family dramas did really happen here!
