Full Description
The classic novel of love and betrayal from the beloved bestselling author, Catherine Cookson.
Elaine and Joe Remington's marriage was not a happy one. As soon as Joe brought his new bride to his home, Fell Rise, it was clear she wouldn't settle easily into married life. Elaine's disapproval of Joe's familiarity with the servants soon put a strain on their relationship, while her haughtiness quickly turned the tight-knit community against her, too.
When Elaine falls pregnant, she is filled with dread at the thought of spending her confinement alone in Fell Rise. Thankfully, her sister Betty agrees to stay with her, and her arrival helps to ease the bitter loneliness that Elaine has grown used to.
Elaine's relief is short-lived, though, as she watches Betty grow increasingly comfortable with life at Fell Rise and in her relationship with Joe. And soon, Elain begins to question whether Betty's presence will do more harm than good in the Remington household...
