A Place to Call Home

By: Evie Grace

Narrated by: Penelope Freeman

East Kent, 1876. With doting parents and siblings she adores, 16-year-old Rose Cheevers leads a contented life at Willow Place in Canterbury. A bright future ahead of her, she dreams of following in her mother’s footsteps and becoming a teacher.

Then one traumatic day turns the Cheevers’ household upside down. What was once a safe haven has become a place of peril, and Rose is forced to flee with the younger children. Desperate, she seeks refuge in a remote village with a long-lost grandmother who did not know she existed. But safety comes at a price, and the arrival of a young stranger with connections to her past raises uncomfortable questions about what the future holds.
