Angela O'Rourke was only six years old when her parents sent her to live with her aunt and uncle. They have never once written or visited, and Angela can't help but feel forgotten and unwanted.
As Angela grows into an ambitious young woman, she feels stifled by small-town life. When her uncle's behaviour towards her turns from unsettling to unbearable, Angela seizes an opportunity to leave Ireland - and vows never to look back.
Arriving in Liverpool in 1962, Angela is swept up in the noise and colour of the city. Soon she finds her calling in fashion design. But an affair of the heart will throw Angela's new life into disarray. And although Angela has no desire to return, there are secrets waiting for her back in Ireland . . .

Lyn Andrews was born in Liverpool in 1944; her father Joseph was killed on D-Day just nine months later. Lyn was brought up in Liverpool and became a secretary before she married and gave birth to triplets. Once the children had gone to school Lyn began writing, and her first novel was quickly accepted for publication. She has since written over thirty books, many of them Sunday Times bestsellers.
Lyn lives on the Isle of Man, but spends many weeks of the year back on Merseyside, seeing her children and grandchildren.
