Klappentext The Fisher Lass is a love story as powerful and restless as the mighty North Sea The Fisher Lass is a love story as powerful and restless as the mighty North Sea Zusammenfassung Flame-haired Jeannie Buchanan has spent all her life in the shadow of the dark North Sea. Working with freezing fingers to gut the precious herring, she follows the fleet south, travelling far away from her Scottish home. When her beloved father's trawler goes missing, Jeannie must face up to life on her own. But her fiery temper and fierce independence attract powerful and devious enemies. By standing up to the Hayes-Gorton family, she could be threatening the future of those she cares for most. By denying a man prepared to sacrifice all his privileges for a chance to offer his devotion, she could be facing years of unhappiness. Amidst the great social upheaval of the inter-war years, Jeannie must search again for the real love she has always denied herself . . . Margaret Dickinson's The Fisher Lass brilliantly evokes the dramas of those who are born to the fishing way of life.
