About this listen

A young girl's tragic loss will shape her dreams and her future…

1930 - Douro Valley, Portugal

Twelve-year-old Catherine is watching the Rabalo race in Porto when the sound of a shot being fired changes her life forever.

Her beloved mother, mistress for some years to Walter Shellard, a Bristol-based wine and port merchant has received distressing news that her lover, Walter, has married a wealthy heiress. In her anguish she takes her own life, leaving poor Catherine alone and heartbroken.

Angry and grieving, Catherine is sent to live under the guardianship of her eccentric Aunt Lopa in a small farmhouse high above the rich vineyards of the Douro valley. Here, she learns to adapt to her new life and her strange aunt but still blames her father, a man she barely knows, for her mother’s tragic death.

Coming of age, beautiful Catherine is summoned to Bristol by her estranged father who presumes she’ll be as malleable as most other women.

But Catherine is her father’s daughter, as strong as he is and still thirsting for revenge.

A compelling family saga of loss and love perfect for fans of Fiona Valpy and Dinah Jefferies

Previously published as House in the Hills by Erica Brown.

This is a fantastic story. It has everything you want; great characters, a superb plot, and leaves you with an in ability to put it down.

My only criticism is genuinely it did feel as if the end was rapid when really it could have continued. All I can hope is there is a sequel otherwise the ending could have been much later on. This will be understood once you listen.

Simply amazing
