Ties of Love

“Don’t go, Amber, don’t leave Denny an’ me alone, I be feared of this house.’

If only she had heeded her ten-year-old sister’s words! But Amber Neale returns from India to the devastating news of Bethany’s death and her brother’s disappearance. The man she holds responsible is mine-owner Uriah Buckley, a powerful man in Darlaston, and Amber knows he will make her life a living hell if crossed. But loyalty to her siblings prevails, and she determines to seek out the truth.

Amber’s only ally is Rani, the gentle Indian girl who owes Amber her life. Together they create a line of floral face creams and cosmetics, and go on to found a successful beauty salon. But wealth and success do not fill the heart. Amber still aches with the loss of her beloved family, and demons from her life in India haunt her dreams.

Meanwhile the vile Uriah Buckley waits in the wings, determined to despoil the innocent girl rather than see her uncover his vicious secret.
