BROTHERS AND SISTERS OF BYLAND CRESCENT

THE START OF A HEARTWARMING AND HEART-WRENCHING NEW SAGA SERIES FROM BESTSELLING AUTHOR BILL KITSON.

From humble origins, the Cowgill family have bettered their lot. Through love and loss, hope and heartbreak, they work hard and face their troubles together, no matter what life throws at them. Yorkshire, 1878. Young, ambitious and in love, Albert Cowgill's life is finally beginning in earnest. At just twenty-three, he has already been made partner at Haigh, Ackroyd & Cowgill - the best wool business in the city. He's also just laid eyes on the prettiest girl he ever saw, Hannah Ackroyd. Romance soon blossoms for Albert and Hannah, and they marry and set up home in Scarborough. But before long, clouds gather over Number 1, Byland Crescent. Within a year, Albert's family begins to disintegrate. His youngest daughter contracts consumption. His eldest son runs off with the housemaid. As Europe teeters on the brink of war, Albert's hopes for his youngest son - and his business - are dashed. Conflict will irrevocably change the Cowgill family's way of life... Discover the trials and tribulations of a Yorkshire family through the decades. Readers of Sheila Riley, Pam Howes, Lizzie Lane, Tania Crosse, Dilly Court, Dinah Jeffries, Suzanne Goldring and all fans of Downton Abbey and The Forsyte Saga will devour this touching saga series. Bill Kitson is the author of the DI Mike Nash thrillers, plus the Eden House Mysteries featuring amateur sleuths Adam Bailey and Eve Samuels. The Cowgill Family Saga is the latest addition, previously published independently, but now all commercially published.
