A must series

This is a very well written story of family hardships, joys, legacy through the generations in Scotland & N. America.
I thoroughly enjoyed the time spent listening to this lovely novel.

Enduring Tale of Strength and Resilience Wonderfully Narrated

I loved Annie's journey and struggles yet ultimately still finds her place in 20th Century Scotland. The narration so perfectly captured the essence of Scotland with both its working class and high society. I couldn't stop listening to Isa's Daughter!

Brilliant narration!

The narrator’s style and voicing given to each character brought another layer of depth to this well-written story. I was so enthralled listening that I ended up running further than planned because I wanted to hear what would happen next.

I will listen to more books by this author and narrator team!
