Katie is determined to give her family a fresh start in the quaint fishing town of Stonehaven. But secrets from the past cast long shadows. As danger creeps ever closer, can Katie unravel the mysteries around her and find the love and happiness she deserves…before it’s too late?

When Katie and her siblings, Wilbur, Polly, and Tim, are orphaned, they are fortunate that their grandfather, Sir William Cavendish still cares for them with a handful of loyal servants. Life at Castleford Hall on the edge of the moors continues to the steady rhythm of the farming year.

However, times are changing. Riots and unrest for better working conditions are sweeping the country, and Katie senses that some people would like to bring the Cavendish family to ruin.

When tragedy strikes, Katie is forced to flee from the moors she loves. She and her siblings must turn their backs on everything they���ve known and start again in the small fishing town of Stonehaven.

Wealth and comfort are soon distant memories as they roll up their sleeves and take over the running of a coaching inn to keep a roof over their heads.

Katie isn’t afraid of hard work, though. And when George, a kind-hearted fisherman, helps them settle in, she hopes that love might blossom.

But her newfound peace and sense of belonging is short-lived.

There are strange goings-on in the dead of night…

And rumours that the smugglers have returned…

Somebody wants her gone, but the question is, who?

As the autumn storms roll in, Katie and George must navigate the treacherous waters of long-buried secrets and divided loyalties in Stonehaven.

In a race against time, will Katie’s bravery be enough to unravel the mysteries of the past and bring her the love and happiness she yearns for?

The Farthing Girl is a page-turning, heart-warming saga romance full of adventure, courage, heartache and hope. Rich with emotion and intrigue, this story will linger in your mind long after you finish it.
