Produktbeschreibung
For fans of Kristin Hannah and Amy Harmon, this sweeping historical novel tells the story of a courageous young woman fighting to survive against the odds on the American frontier. 1874, Missouri: It's been a long winter. Every morning Ginny pulls on her father's old leather coat before heading out to tend to the cattle. Since Ginny and her fourteen-year-old sister Mary-Lou were orphaned she's discovered that Snow Farm is deep in debt, but she's determined to hold onto it - the one thing connecting them to the memory of their beloved parents, and their only means of survival alone against the elements. But when a handsome injured stranger turns up at their door needing their help and shelter, he awakens feelings Ginny could never have imagined. Now she has something else to strive for: a glimpse of a life she never dared dream was possible. An utterly spellbinding story which celebrates the determination and courage of women who've learnt to rely on themselves alone. A breath-taking and vivid novel of courage in the hardest times and hope that lights the way in the darkness.
Autorenporträt
Imogen writes sweeping, historical fiction set in the US. As a teenager she took the Greyhound bus from San Francisco to New York. Over those three days of staring out of the window at the majestic mountains and endless flat plains, stories wound themselves into her head: tales of brooding, charismatic men captivated by independent young women. Since then, Imogen has worked in a coffee-shop in Piccadilly, a famous bookshop and a children's home. She has run festivals and turned a derelict housing block on one of the poorest estates in the UK into an award-winning arts centre. During 2020 Imogen was selected by Kate Nash Literary Agency as one of their BookCamp mentees, a new mentorship programme designed to accelerate the careers of promising new writers. Married with two daughters, Imogen divides her time between Wales and Sardinia.
