What a sweet read this was, in keeping with what the author is known for. Female friendship, familial relationships with a little mystery thrown in.

Lyrebird Lake is a lovely place, Hannah is looking for a fresh start for her and her son. Deemed homeless after the death of her husband, a family keep sake leads her there.

Hopeful for work and accommodation, they've been sleeping rough. Their arrival to this town leads to lovely people with histories of their own.

This story blends two generations and timelines, shown from each woman's perspectives. Serious themes prevalent of the times were central to this story.

One character was most unlikable, unable to show love to her family, I was left wondering at the end what was to become of her.

This is an easy read highlighting the complexity of times gone by and rigid beliefs these times were synonymous for. Thanks to @henrymarlene for my gifted copy, what a joy it is to share books.
