Author of "The Postmistress" and "The Goldminer's Sister", Alison Stuart will discuss the third and last book in her Maiden's Creek series, "The Homecoming", released on 4 January 2023.
Concluding the Maiden’s Creek trilogy… It is now 1892 and twenty years have passed since the events of The Goldminer's Sister. Daniel Hunt and Charlie O’Reilly are now adults and making their own way in the world, but the traumatic events of their respective childhoods have shaped their lives and the pull to return to Maiden’s Creek is strong. Thrown together when the town is threatened, they must work together to save a friend but murder and lurking danger and the secrets that they hold threaten to keep them apart. Will love be enough to bring these two very different people together?
