Still Shinning Bright

"I ain't got a home," Cora blurted out. "We were going to Tasmania, to have a better life with our own house and fruit trees. I've got nowhere to go now." And without giving the matter any thought, she continued, "I'll stay here. Right here at Dungeness. No point in going off and my husband not knowing where I am."
In the winter of 1873, a young woman and her daughter are brought ashore by lifeboat. The remote shingle headland is like nothing they have seen before and, with only the nightclothes they are wearing, they rely on the kindness of strangers. The British Inn welcomes them, and new friendships are formed while Cora must use her wit to survive in this remote settlement. A prequel to Secrets of the Shingle, this novel takes the reader from the Dungeness peninsula to the market town of Ashford, Kent.
