More about the book
Frances Goodwin, a pretty young infant school teacher, returns to Blackpool from Yorkshire to look after her increasingly ailing mother. She soon becomes frustrated with the lack of space at her mother’s small bungalow and the constant need to account for her movements. To regain some freedom, she joins an operatic society, rekindling her love of singing and drama. However, her life takes a dramatic turn with the arrival of Adrian Glover, the new local Methodist minister, who falls in love with her. When he proposes, she accepts without hesitation, but their engagement becomes complicated as her mother’s health deteriorates and she meets a new colleague, the distinguished and attractive Marcus Avery.
