Fictional Saga
early 20th Century
Yorkshire, England
I come from a
farming background, although West Country orientated, but what a delight to
read something set in North Yorkshire. I was drawn to the novel for the farming
aspect, and was not disappointed by discovering such a wonderful read.
This is the
continuing story of William and Emma Sinclair, which started in the story, Moorland Mist. Now, the couple are
raising a family and coping with the struggles of a farming life at the turn of
the 20th century. The struggles pay off for the farm is starting to
become a success, but when her mother falls ill Emma has to return to Scotland where
she also hopes to heal the rifts of the past, but Williams mother too, is
causing problems and secrets and difficulties soon upset the lives of our
characters.
This is a tale
of great detail for the reality of life as a farmer where Nature rules, not the
events of history, and where relationships can be so easily broken if there is
no determination to survive.
