The Tangling of the Web

by Millie Gray, Lesley Mackie (Reading)

Sally, who married young to escape her appalling childhood, is often left to bitterly reflect on the hand she has been dealt. She is, on the whole, happy caring for her handsome husband, his mother, her own three children, one of whom has a disability, and her eccentric sister. Then suddenly her world comes crashing down when her husband leaves her with no warning. She is helped unexpectedly by a friend whose advice stands her in good stead, and by hard work and sheer determination she soon turns around a Leith pub which has a shocking reputation as a house of ill-repute. During all her trials she still finds time to care for her ever-increasing family and, having been a victim of abuse, she is always on hand to assist her many, some dubious, friends to realize their potential.

Rather rambling and unbelievable at times. Not nearly as good as I thought it would be.
