Abandoned children. Wicked mothers. Deadly secrets. Sometimes life's a real fairytale.
When Sophie Baker starts searching for answers about her birth and identity, the journey takes her from New Zealand to England, India and Germany, each place drawing her further back into her family's carefully buried past. What she discovers will derail her sheltered life and change her future. But unearthing the truth will also dramatically impact those who came before. Separated across times and continents yet bound by blood and by a single, hateful act, four women, four generations, finally converge in the place it all started, and a horrifying history looks set to repeat itself.
What is true is that my parents were Glaswegian, and they adopted me and both my brothers in New Zealand, later whisking us off to their bonnie homeland to live for four years. We didn't last two. After eighteen months Mum and Dad fled with us back to the land of sunny beaches and long warm summers, conceding that they had lost their Hardy Scots status for good.
This short overseas experience instilled in me a love for travel and a fascination for cultures, stories and languages not my own. So I went on to study French and German literature, fell for a guy with the oddest and loveliest accent I'd ever heard, and have spent much of my married life bouncing about the globe with him, following hearts and jobs to settle in countries as varied as Germany and Pakistan, France and India, Vietnam and England. And while I've enjoyed my years of university teaching and academic editing, it's fiction writing that I've found to be the most challenging and absorbing job of all.
