Matthew's Daughter

By E.M. Phillips

Matthew's Daughter is the second book of a Cornish Saga that began with Francis Lindsey's story 'And All Shall Be Well'. Now we follow Caroline Penrose after her return from the war to Trewlyns, her father's flower farm in Cornwall, where she hopes to find the peace and quiet to rebuild her life after the death of her Polish airman lover. But shortly after her arrival home she becomes aware of an atmosphere of secrecy and intrigue between her father Matthew, Grace Brendon his housekeeper, and Caroline's best friend Jennie, daughter of the rector Paul Tremaine.Confronting what she sees as a conspiracy of silence the headstrong Caroline only succeeds in opening doors onto some even deeper and more complicated secrets.An ill-advised love affair with a randy vet, a reclusive enigmatic Frenchman who could be friend or foe, a journey across foreign fields in search of a missing mother and child and a subsequent involvement with old school friend Elizabeth Pascoe and her charming but dangerous-to-know lover Francis Lindsey, bring still more revelations for Caroline. Some joyous, some tragic, some deeply moving; all of them to be confronted and resolved before Matthew's daughter can face her own bright future with her own particular man.
