The heir to Cornwall’s biggest clay works and the daughter of one of his employees take a gamble on love in this touching historical saga.
Just as an unexpected passion began to blossom between Morwen Tremayne and Ben Killigrew, the fates seemed determined to stifle its growth. A long, bitter struggle between owner and workforce brought about Charles Killigrew’s sudden illness, and with it, Ben’s summons to the head of the family firm.
Innocent victims of other men’s antagonisms, they find themselves party to a conflict that threatens to cut them off not only from their families, but from each other . . .
Perfect for fans of Rosie Goodwin, Catherine Cookson, and Linda Finlay.
Praise for Killigrew Clay
