Will Rosie ever escape from her brutal brothers?
As a child, Rosie Parker spent the war years battling her brutish half-brothers, Seth and Norman, on the farm under the less-than-watchful eye of her father, Cole. But when housekeeper Heather Farley arrives, Rosie finds a motherβand a friendβto look after her.
Several years later, Thomas Farley comes to find his sister. Rosie can only tell him that she disappeared in mysterious circumstances, abandoning her small son, Alan. Determined to get young Alan and Rosie out of the clutches of Cole and his sons, Thomas helps unearth a terrible truth about the family. A truth that forces Rosie away from the farm and out into a cruel world where she must somehow come to terms with her shocking past.
Is it possible that the man who brought ruin on her family might also bring happiness to Rosie?
