FENLAND ANNIE


My latest book, Fenland Annie, is set in Cambridgeshire in the 1870s.






Annie lives in the Cambridgeshire fens with her father, Jonas, elder brother James, young sister Lucy and Kezia, her no-nonsense grandmother. Annie spends most of her days helping around the house and on the farm. Unlike her best friend Betty she doesn’t long to marry a village boy, live in a small cottage and have lots of babies, and although Freddie, her childhood sweetheart, loves her very much, Annie’s feelings towards him are changeable. Secretly she yearns for the handsome Tyler Hetherington, son of the local squire, although she knows that a farmer’s daughter would never stand a chance against the wealthy women clamouring for his attention. When tragedy strikes her life Annie’s world is shattered. She must decide which path will give her the independence she craves.
