Title: Grandmother's Footsteps
Description: "Hester is single, successful and apparently independent. She has everything she wants, except a child. In defence against her overbearing father, His Honour Judge Simeon Oakes, she has developed a habit of keeping men at arm's length. But Simeon's sudden death sets off a train of discoveries and disclosures and Hester is forced to reassess her past, present and future. For Verity, Hester's downtrodden mother, her husband's death is a liberation. What will become of her and of Knighton, the beautiful family house with its magnificent garden, now that Verity is free to make her own decisions? And can she escape the control of her talented mother, Evelyn, author and suffragette, who has been dead for over twenty years but whose newly discovered diary threatens the peace of mind of her descendents?"
