Sally Lunn

It is the 1930s. Smart, sophisticated, and with an air of confidence, Sally Lunn makes a trip back home to visit her family in the village of Bramblewick. But things are not as they were before she left to take up a position in London: the family name has fallen further from favour, deepening the ill-feeling between the Lunns and their rivals, the Fosdycks. Her brother Marney is driven by ambitions of his own, and urges the family to break with tradition by moving to nearby Burnharbour and get a much bigger fishing boat. Maybe Sally should have stayed in the big city, but then she meets Tom Fosdyck, and her attraction to him isn't merely a passing fancy. This authentic and engrossing story about the Lunns' struggle to wrest a living from man's greatest enemy, the sea, is also a tale of adventure and passion, with a dramatic climax. Sally Lunn is the third book in what has become known as the Bramblewick Trilogy, following Three Fevers and Phantom Lobster. Bramblewick is Walmsley's fictional name for Robin Hood's Bay.
