A vibrant page-turner with entrancing characters. Margaret Dickinson says, "Rosie writes such heartwarming sagas," and the Coventry Evening Telegraph describes it as "the new Catherine Cookson."

Wednesday's child is full of woe... Warwickshire, 1865. Nessie Carson will do anything to keep her family together after her mother is killed, her father abandons them, and they are evicted from their cozy little Nuneaton home. She and her brothers and sisters take on jobs as live-in assistants to a local undertaker. She is soon entwined in the fortunes of her employer, Andre, who is forced to live a lie, and the local doctor—someone she's attracted to but can never have.

But even in the darkest of times and saddest of places, when you're as spirited as Nessie Carson, there is light, love, and the promise of happiness if you're only brave enough to search for it. The perfect Christmas treat for fans of Dilly Cour.
