Set in Hull in 1874. Clara has always wondered about the beautiful, mysterious Jewel Newmarch, who was adopted as a baby and now turns heads wherever she goes. Her exotic looks point to her origins far away from the streets of Hull. Even at her twin sister Elizabeth's wedding, Clara knows that Jewel is the belle of the ball. And as Jewel looks on at the happy, newly-married couple, she feels a restlessness and intense longing to know her own roots. And so the two girls decide to return to Jewel's birthplace in America. In discovering the mysteries of Jewel's past, they realise that this is a life-changing voyage of discovery for both of them as they learn important lessons about family, friendship, love and home. But most importantly, love. 412pp, paperback.
