Mary Hetherington ruled the men of her family with authority. She was kind, efficient and generous-- providing they did just what she wanted. When David brought home a girl from the wrong end of the Fifteen Streets, she was gracious for a while.
Then she discovered that Sarah was loved not only by David, but by all her menfolk. For Sarah, who was poor, uneducated and badly-dressed, had brought warmth and gaiety in a house devoid of love.
Mary realized that Sarah, if allowed to go unchecked, would become a challenge to her authority, the one thing that she could not accept.

About the Author:
Catherine Cookson was born in Tyne Dock, the illegitimate daughter of a poverty-stricken woman, Kate, whom she believed to be her older sister. She began work in service but eventually moved south to Hastings, where she met and married Tom Cookson, a local grammar-school master. Although she was originally acclaimed as a regional writer - her novel The Round Tower won the Winifred Holtby Award for the best regional novel of 1968 - her readership quickly spread throughout the world, and her many bestselling novels established her as one of the most popular of contemporary women novelists. After receiving an OBE in 1985, Catherine Cookson was created a Dame of the British Empire in 1993. She was appointed an Honorary Fellow of St Hilda's College, Oxford, in 1997. For many years she lived near Newcastle upon Tyne. She died shortly before her ninety-second birthday, in June 1998.
