by Lyn Andrews (Author)
'The Catherine Cookson of Liverpool' (Northern Echo), Lyn Andrews, brings 1960s Liverpool vividly to life in this evocative saga not to be missed by readers of Donna Douglas and Kate Thompson.
When best friends Dee Campbell and Jean Williams leave school in 1959, it feels like every opportunity awaits them. Their families haven't long moved from a rundown part of the city to leafy Kirkby when Jean's father wins the Irish sweepstake and soon Jean's set up her own hairdressing salon, while both girls have fallen for good-looking lads with prospects.
But Dee's father is about to discover a disturbing truth about her fiance which will tear the family apart. As Dee flees to Ireland, Jean marries Tony, blissfully unaware that she's not the only pretty girl to catch his eye...
Tumultuous years lie ahead but Dee and Jean will learn that the people who love you will always be there when you need them most...

Book Overview: A DAUGHTER'S JOURNEY was a paperback bestseller in the UK and Ireland
Lyn Andrews was born in Liverpool in 1944; her father Joseph was killed on D-Day just nine months later. Lyn was brought up in Liverpool and became a secretary before she married and gave birth to triplets. Once the children had gone to school Lyn began writing, and her first novel was quickly accepted for publication. She has since written over thirty books, many of them Sunday Times bestsellers.
Lyn lives on the Isle of Man, but spends many weeks of the year back on Merseyside, seeing her children and grandchildren.
