Synopsis: From &“a born storyteller&” a nineteenth–century British family saga a woman who finds love after the death of her parents (Times & Citizen). When Emma Grady finds herself orphaned one fateful night in 1860, she is left at the mercy of her devious aunt and cruel uncle Caleb Crowther. A feared Lancashire Justice, Caleb Crowther is a womanizer and a gambler, and now the inheritance due Emma is as much in his hands as is the beautiful girl herself. But Caleb lives in fear of the past, for how did Emma&’s mother mysteriously die? And what is the reason behind the family&’s hatred for the river people? History seems likely to repeat itself when Emma falls desperately in love with Marlow Tanner, a young barge captain. For Marlow and Emma, it is an impossible love—a love made in Heaven but one which could carry them both to Hell. The first heart-wrenching book in the Emma Grady Sagas, perfect for fans of Lisa Wingate and Fiona Davis. &“Cox&’s talent as a storyteller never lets you escape.&” —Daily Mail
