Summary
Brand-new from Liverpool's very own best-selling author, Sheila Riley
1910 Liverpool Docks
Ruby Swift is a hard-working, straight-talking woman of substance who does not suffer fools gladly.
But when tragedy strikes on a bitter Christmas Eve, Ruby and her beloved Archie take matters into their own hands when a trusted employee’s house is mysteriously engulfed by flames and lives are lost.
Orphaned by the fire, Ruby welcomes heartbroken 16-year-old Anna Cassidy into her home and family, but circumstances conspire against them, and she is unable to save Anna's 12-year-old brother Sam Cassidy, who is sent by the church to Canada as a Homeboy.
Can Ruby help mend a broken heart, and can these two children ever be reunited, or is there another higher game in play?
Mersey Mistress takes you on a journey to another time, another place. From the banks of the River Mersey to the frozen waters of the Canadian Saint Laurence River.
Critic reviews
"A powerful and totally absorbing family saga that is not to be missed. I turned the pages almost faster than I could read." (Carol Rivers)

Heartwarming Olde England
Good story line, could have been more detailed with linking era activities.
All in all a lovely book to listen to on long journeys.

A charming and delightful story
The narration was perfection enhancing the story with good accents and feeling adding to the theatrical sense of listening to a play and actually living within the story. I hope there is a another book which continues this delightful journey.
