About this listen

1899

Josie has never questioned her life in a mining village on the South Yorkshire coalfield. But everything changes when she meets Tommy from the neighbouring village. Tommy has been destined for a life underground since the moment he was born. But he has far bigger dreams.
Josie and Tommy become fast friends, united by their desire for something better and by their fascination with the local gentry who have their keeping. Wealthy and glamorous, the Sedgewicks of Silvermoor inhabit a world that is utterly forbidden to Tommy and Josie. Yet as the new century dawns, and the pair become entangled with the grand family, they discover a long hidden secret and learn that nothing is impossible.

'Tracy Rees writes from the heart' Kathryn Hughes, author of The Letter.

Perfect for fans of Lucinda Riley and Dinah Jefferies.

Interesting story, well narrated which kept my attention throughout. and I was sorry when it came to an end. Some surprises along the way and several heart in mouth moments. The mining background seemed well researched. I enjoyed it more than The Note but not as much as Amy Snow and Florence Grace.

Thoroughly enjoyable

It was a gentle but detailed account of life in a mining community at the turn of the century. Really enjoyed it. Nice narrations and a twee but not sickly story.
