The Wayward Tide

Alison McLeay

As a daughter and as a wife, Rachel Dean chafes against the constraints which leave 19th C women so little choice in their own destiny. Even widowhood becomes a bitter freedom when she is forced to fight for survival in an alien frontier township in the American West. Eventually she winds up in Liverpool and the sombre mansions of the mighty Olivers, whose tall ships range the oceans of the world.
