About this listen
1931, Lancashire:
When Finn Carlisle loses his wife and unborn child, he spends a few years travelling to keep the sad memories at bay. Just as he's ready to settle down again, his great-uncle dies and leaves everything to him. This includes Heythorpe House in Ellindale just down the road from Leah Willcox and her little fizzy drink factory.
Finn finds a village of people in dire need of jobs, a house that hasn't been cleaned or lived in for thirty years and Reggie, an eleven-year-old who's run away from the nearby orphanage and its brutal Director Buddle. When Finn sees the marks left by regular beatings, he decides Reggie will never go back there.
He can't turn away two hungry young women from the village seeking jobs as maids, either, and they too need help with their lives.
But Buddle has other plans for the child, and will stop at nothing to get Reggie back in his cruel grasp. His new neighbours help him save Reggie but other surprises throw his new plans into turmoil.

Critic Reviews
Praise for the Ellindale series
One of the most lovely and heartwarming books I have ever read! *****
A book of family, love, friendship and loyalty. *****
I was gripped from the very first word on the very first page and I wasn't released until the last word on the last page . . . When I finished I felt like I had been through an emotional wringer. *****
Praise for Anna Jacobs
[Anna Jacobs' books have an] impressive grasp of human emotions
Anna Jacobs' books are deservedly popular. She is one of the best writers of Lancashire sagas around
[Anna Jacobs is] especially big on resourceful, admirable women. Great stuff!
