About the Author
Best-selling author Anne Douglas has now made her home in Edinburgh, a city she has known for many years. She very much enjoys life in the modern capital, and finds its ever-present history fascinating.
From Booklist
Dundee, Scotland, in the 1920s is firmly divided into the haves and the have-nots. Eva Masson, tenement resident and part of a family of jute mill workers, is among the latter. She narrowly misses having to work in the mills thanks to a scholarship donated by the owner of the very mill her family works in. Eva eventually falls in love with the mill owner’s son, Nicholas. The Massons believe Eva is blindsided by his fine clothes and red sports car, but Eva and Nicholas are truly in love. But while Eva is concerned about her family accepting their relationship, Nicholas is concerned about his family’s suspicion of Eva’s increasing interest in labor disputes and the mill workers’ union. How can Eva stay true to her roots while staying true to Nicholas? Nicholas and Eva must meet in the middle to satisfy their families without compromising themselves or their love. Douglas’ gentle novel couches the classic “wrong side of the tracks” story in historical detail and drama. --Hilary Hatton
