About this title

Synopsis

In strictly chapel Pontypridd in 1938, tongues are quick to wag when Alma Moore, abandoned by her lover, is rushed to hospital with stomach pains. The doctor may call it appendicitis, but the scandal-mongers think they know better. And then Bethan John, who's too good for the rest of them since she married a doctor, comes back to her mining family's house with her new baby - but without her husband, or any word of explanation. Ostracised by most - even their own mothers - Alma and Bethan face a lonely struggle to survive. Then taciturn Russian Charlie, an outsider haunted by his own past, reaches out the hand of friendship to them both, and in so doing begins to thaw his own heart...

From the Inside Flap

The third in Catrin Collier?s powerful Hearts of Gold series.

In a judgmental world two women fight for survival.

Pontypridd 1938. A strict, chapel-going, God-fearing society, harsh in its condemnation of ?fallen women?. Two women fight for survival.

For Alma Moore, abandoned by her lover, the future looks bleak and lonely as she is left to face the whispers of the town?s gossips. Life is no better for her friend Bethan when she returns from London with her baby but without her husband or an explanation for their separation. Two women, ostracised by friends and family. Only one man, Charlie Raschenko, a Russian refugee haunted by his own past, is prepared to stretch out a hand to help.
