Summary

A compelling family drama from the nation’s favourite storyteller. 
Florence Stanville is a woman with a past. When she moves to Guisethorpe on the east coast of England, the townsfolk are intrigued by the glamorous and mysterious stranger, with her flame-red hair and abrupt manners. 
Florence doesn’t care about the gossips – she’s drawn to the peaceful seaside town by the pull of her childhood, when she lived for a brief but happy time with her beloved late mother. The riddle of those days remains and now Florence can only snatch at half-remembered memories and shadowy figures in her dreams. 
As Florence is reluctantly drawn into the lives of her new neighbours, the layers of her own life are revealed, though it’s clear not everyone wishes her well. Far from finding peace, Florence has found instead turmoil and secrets. Can she put the pieces of her past together, or will it remain a closed book forever…? 
Bestselling author Josephine Cox brings to life a rural setting in her Sunday Times bestselling book, A Daughter's Return. Set in the small town of Guisethorpe, this top fiction novel explores family sagas and the bonds of friendship amidst a backdrop of secrets and turmoil. 
For fans of Lesley Pearse (A Lesser Evil), Anna Jacobs (Replenish the Earth), Lizzie Lane (Tough Times on Coronation Close), Annemarie Brear (The Riverside Maid), and Pamela Kavanagh (THE LONELY FURROW a spellbinding historical family saga).
