Bitter Seed

Set against the backdrop of World War I, this is a heartbreaking tale for fans of Josephine Cox.

Having suffered much cruelty at the hands of her father, Isabel Kenton is shocked to hear after his death that he was not her real father.

Isabel inherits their house while her twin brother Mark is left the family steel works. But when World War I breaks out, Mark joins the RAF, and Isabel must take responsibility for the management of the business, much to the displeasure of the town's industrialists.

Struggling to keep the business alive, she must also discover who she really is. Along the way she will make enemies, but she will also find answers - and love.
