A Secret in the Family cover

A DAUGHTER'S JOURNEY was a paperback bestseller in the UK and Ireland

A secret about Dee Campbell's fiance will tear a family apart in this atmospheric and heart-rending saga from the bestselling author of EVERY MOTHER'S SON and FROM LIVERPOOL WITH LOVE.

'The Catherine Cookson of Liverpool' (Northern Echo), Lyn Andrews, brings 1960s Liverpool vividly to life in this evocative saga not to be missed by readers of Donna Douglas and Kate Thompson.

When best friends Dee Campbell and Jean Williams leave school in 1959, it feels like every opportunity awaits them. Their families haven't long moved from a rundown part of the city to leafy Kirkby when Jean's father wins the Irish sweepstake and soon Jean's set up her own hairdressing salon, while both girls have fallen for good-looking lads with prospects.

But Dee's father is about to discover a disturbing truth about her fiancé which will tear the family apart. As Dee flees to Ireland, Jean marries Tony, blissfully unaware that she's not the only pretty girl to catch his eye...

Tumultuous years lie ahead but Dee and Jean will learn that the people who love you will always be there when you need them most...
