Beyond the Sunset

by Margaret Thornton

Before Molly Rimmer loses her parents in 1897, her future had seemed full of promise. Through her dream to own a shop in exclusive Jubilee Terrrace in Blackpool, and her budding relationship with charming gentleman, Joss, Molly hoped to raise herself above the poverty she was born into. But following her parents tragic deaths, Molly must take responsibility for her siblings and leave her ambitions, and, Joss, behind. She marries Hector Stubbins, leading light of the local church, searching for the love and security she has lost from her own happy family. But Hector is not the man he first appears to be. Will Molly ever be able to find the happiness which once seemed to be within her grasp?
