By: Catherine Cookson

Narrated by: Susan Jameson

Some women are destined to arouse in men either fierce hatred or insatiable desire. Such a woman was Katie Mulholland.

At 15, a scullery maid in the house of the Rosires, she had been raped by the master. Now, many years later, she had enough money to maintain three carriages if she wanted to, and she was on her way to see Bernard Rosier under very different circumstances.

There was no pride in Katie Mulholland's heart, however, only fear, for half of Tyneside still talked about the way she had flouted convention, and sniggered about the way she had made her money. So she had decided that her only hope was to climb above them, and that she would conquer her fear with power....

A good read!

The author tells a good tale. Keeps you wanting to find out what happens next. Some very likable characters. Others to despise. Would recommend.

You Will Get Lost in this Story

Wanted this story to go on and on. Loved the many characters that were well developed. The narration was excellent. How can one perform so many different voices distinct to each character so well?
With tears and joy this book had it all and I'm looking forward to enjoying more books by this author.

excellent... best book in a very long time.

this is the best book I have read in a very long time. the narrator was superb. I will be looking for more books by this author.

Classic Catherine Cookson

As a lifelong Catherine Cookson fan I was happy to find this Audible Original. Wonderful story, stretching over 90 years. Excellent listen, excellent narrator.

Loved it!

It's hard for me to find a book over 20 hours that I can't wait to listen to, but this book was great. It is all clean language which was a definite plus!
