Product Description

Review
'Her thousands of fans recognise the artistry of a true storyteller' (Lancashire Life )

'Poignant and well plotted, this is the book to curl up with to shut out troubles' (Women's Realm on BEYOND THE SHINING WATER )

'This saga is, like all of Audrey Howard's books, compelling and memorable... a joy to read.' (The Historical Novels Review on A PLACE CALLED HOPE )

‘A compelling and well-paced tale’ (Coventry Evening Telegraph on A FLOWER IN SEASON )

'A fast-moving glorious story... The story twists and turns. As ever, Audrey Howard treats us to lovely details... It is so sad, sweet and lively too... Another true gem, just as is expected of this glorious, twenty-seventh novel, by a wonderful author.' (North Wales Chronicle on WHISPERS ON THE WATER )

‘Howard’s timeless story of love and betrayal is sure to enchant her army of loyal readers’ (Lancashire Evening Post on PAINTED HIGHWAY )

Product Description
Rose Alley is one of the city’s worst slums - a place where hunger, filth and violence are a way of life. It’s no place for proud Queenie Logan and her daughter Gillyflower.

And it seems Queenie’s dreams of escape will come true. Transformed by Miss Hunter’s School for Girls, Gilly opens a successful dressmaking shop. And though she always thought she would marry the boy next door, soon she is courted by one of the richest young men in the city.

But they have made a terrible enemy, who lurks in the Liverpool slums and seeks his chance to destroy them. And in the respectable new world they have joined someone else will prove even more dangerous to Gilly and those she loves.

4.0 out of 5 stars Rose Alley, 17 Sep 2006
By Junie Cea (Yorkshire, England) - See all my reviews
The Narrative in this book is so vivid it paints word pictures so real you can almost touch feel and smell the atmosphere. However, at times it becomes so verbose it practically slips into rhetoric and blank verse. Rose Alley is an engaging read, but not for the feint hearted! The twists and turns fill you with hope and at the same time drag you to the depths of depression. The story ends on a note of hope, but almost only just! Our heroine, Gillyflower Logan is a beautiful, strong-headed, independent business woman, who must make her mark in the world almost at any cost. Angela Ryan the rich adversary should have had a more harsh "come-uppance" in the end though. If you're into Mills & Boone style romance, then this novel is not for you, but if you like a bit of grit and reality then this book is "un-put-downable"
