An Irish immigrant family in nineteenth-century England faces a painful return to the past in this sequel to A Woman Undefeated.
Twenty years have passed since Maggie settled with Jack in northwest England after escaping the Irish Famine. They have overcome hardships to raise a family, but not without heartache along the way. Now Jack wishes to return to Ireland with their daughter Hannah for a nostalgic visit.
Maggie is reluctant to make the trip, not wishing to invoke painful memories and concerned about leaving her now thriving business.
In Ireland, the family find themselves embroiled in the dramatic events of the still-troubled land. As they struggle to recognize their former home, trouble is brewing closer than they think. As history threatens to repeat itself, Maggie must find a way to save her family and everything they’ve fought for.
Born on the Wirral just after the Second World War, Vivienne has always been a great storyteller. Her sagas are based on the amazing lives of her Irish ancestors and continue through each generation until her own autobiography in the 1960s.
