Unlocking the Past, A Pendragon Island Saga

The locals of a quaint Welsh village experience change—for better and worse—in the third Pendragon Island novel from the author of The Weston Girls.

Poachers and dealmakers, the Griffiths family have always managed to scrape by on the edge of the law.

As rationing finally draws to an end, the tight-knit community finds itself coming to terms with a new world in which social boundaries are being eroded and opportunities are growing for all.

Heartache remains a constant though, with Caroline Griffiths trapped in a sham marriage to Barry Martin, and Rhiannon Lewis still mourning their broken engagement. Meanwhile, the close bond between Frank and Ernie Griffiths is tested first by Frank’s growing involvement in a dangerous criminal enterprise, and then by Ernie’s new ladyfriend.

An emotional rollercoaster of a saga that will delight readers of Lyn Andrews and Rosie Goodwin.
