The Kershaw Sisters, Book 1

De: Anna Jacobs

Narrado por: Patricia Gallimore

The first installment in the breathtaking Kershaw Sisters series.

They say you only regret the things you don't do . . .

Lizzie Kershaw is an independent spirit; ever since her father's death she has had to be a survivor. Home life is harsh, though, and desperate to escape it, she makes an ill-advised marriage. But she discovers all-too-quickly that she's married a selfish and violent man. His beatings never seem to stop and she soon comes to a decision: she must run far, far away.

With the help of some suffragettes she escapes to Manchester, where she finds work in a munitions factory - she is finally the independent woman she has always longed to be. But her husband, whose cruelty knows no bounds, tracks her down and drag her back home to more beatings than ever.

But when his violence causes her to lose the one thing she's always wanted, Lizzie knows she must find the strength to make the changes in her life that are so sorely needed.

Reader reviews on OUR LIZZIE

Great story, can't put it down *****

Fabulous book, just as I expected. *****

It grabs you on page one. It twists and turns and not like you imagine it would. A fantastic read. *****

Realistic story

Another great story telling from Ms Jacobs the characters are fully developed and the story flows well I wish the men in that time era would treat the woman more kindly over a great story and the narrator was very good
