Red Sky in the Morning is a heartwarming historical tale of love, hardship, and family secrets from bestselling author and Queen of the Saga, Margaret Dickinson.

December 1946. It is two weeks before Christmas, and a young girl stands alone in the cobbled marketplace of a small Lincolnshire town, bedraggled and very afraid. People rush by, not one of them pausing to help her, until kindly farmer Eddie Appleyard takes the time to comfort the lost figure, discovering her name is Anna.

In a moment of generosity, Eddie offers her a home, much to the displeasure of his formidable wife, Bertha. Anna's arrival will change their lives; Eddie's, Bertha's, and even that of their young son, Tony, who is torn between his warring parents and the mysterious stranger.

As the years go by, the secrets of Anna's past slowly come to light. While facing hardship, she will learn resilience and who she can truly call her family...

About the Author

Born in Gainsborough, Lincolnshire, Margaret Dickinson moved to the coast at the age of seven and so began her love for the sea and the Lincolnshire landscape. Her ambition to be a writer began early and she had her first novel published at the age of twenty-five. This was followed by many further titles including Plough the Furrow, Sow the Seed and Reap the Harvest, which make up her Fleethaven trilogy. She is also the author of The Buffer Girls and its sequel Daughters of Courage. Margaret is a Sunday Times top ten bestseller.
