This was the first Josephine Cox book I have read.
I read through it VERY quicky. I liked her style of writing, the characters were lovable, I found the book very intriguing from the very first page, but I do have to admit I found the plot somewhat far fetched.
Why would Barney not go to America, set his family up for a better future, and die happy knowing their lives had improved and they would survive when he left them.
I thought there would be some deeper, dark secret.
Having said all that, I will be now moving straight onto the follow-up 'Journeys End' to find out what happened to the other characters :-)

Having read an excerpt from this novel as a short story in Woman’s Weekly last year and been looking forward to the paperback coming out ever since. I was not disappointed as spell binding read from start to finish. The way the book spans the decades to bring this realistic story alive is brilliant. I didn’t want to put this book down, really looking forward to the Sequel.

joseohine cox has outdone herself again with this wonderful book. A tale of a mans love for his family and how he sacrifices everything to protect his family. A truly inspiring story of love between family and friends and how the actions of one man can destroy his family and save themall at the same time. this book is definately one for reading as soon as possible and i promise you will not be able to put this book down once you start reading it.
