Summary

Annie Swinburn had killed a man -- the killing was timely and well-deserved, for Francis Morton had been evil in every possible way. But Annie knew that however justified her crime, only the rope and the gibbet awaited her if she remained in the slums of Hull. And so she ran -- up river, along the wild and secretive paths of the great Humber -- a new and unfamiliar territory which was to lead her into a new and unfamiliar life.

Her first refuge was with Toby Linton, well-born, estranged from his father and -- with his brother Matt -- earning a dangerous living as a smuggler. Annie led a double life, as a smuggler, and as a pedlar roaming the remote countryside of the Wolds. It was this new existence which led her, once more, into allowing herself to love, in spite of all the things that had gone before.

I really enjoyed Discovering what happened to Annie. It’s a great book and I was a bit sad when it finished. All the characters were real and believable. Anne Dover, as per usual, read perfectly. I would recommend this book an excellent 2nd book. Val Wood is a great writer for sure.

I loved this story and did not want it to end, there are happy and sad bits to the story,
it is hard to give a full explanation without spoiling it for other readers, but it is a lovely tale about rags to riches,
