THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER

'Beautifully-penned story on the harshness of life and how hope survives' - Sun

'Absorbing . . . Marsh writes with a novelistic flair' - Daily Mail

From the grimy streets of Acton and Notting Hill to the bright lights of the West End, Sunday Times bestselling author Beezy Marsh's All My Mother's Secrets is a powerful, uplifting story of a young woman's struggle to come to terms with her family's tragic past.

Annie Austin's childhood ends at the age of twelve, when she joins her mother in one of the slum laundries of Acton, working long hours for little pay. What spare time she has is spent looking after her younger brother George and her two stepsisters, under the glowering eye of her stepfather Bill. In London between the wars, a girl like Annie has few choices in life - but a powerful secret will change her destiny.

All Annie knows about her real father is that he died in the Great War, and as the years pass she is haunted by the pain of losing him. Her downtrodden mother won't tell her more and Annie's attempts to uncover the truth threaten to destroy her family. Distraught, she runs away to Covent Garden, but can she survive on her own and find the love which has eluded her so far?

Autorenporträt

Beezy Marsh is an award-winning journalist, who spent more than twenty years making the headlines in newspapers including the Daily Mail and the Sunday Times. Today she writes romantic fiction, as well as memoir and biography, and somehow finds time to write a blog about her life as an imperfect mother to two young boys, in between tackling a never-ending pile of laundry and doing the school run. Family and relationships are at the heart of her writing and she is a firm believer that sisters, mothers and wives are the glue which binds everything together. She is the author of Keeping My Sisters' Secrets, Mad Frank and Sons and Mr Make Believe.
