About this ebook
Two sisters. United by friendship. Divided by disgrace.
In a powerful saga from Pam Evans, The Tideway Girls reveals a country torn apart by the Great War - from the quiet fishing villages of Essex to the beating heart of London, the population struggles to find hope after tragedy. Perfect for fans of Cathy Sharp and Rosie Goodwin.
It's 1904, and close sisters Bessie and May live a happy but frugal life in the busy maritime village of Tideway in Essex. But trouble divides the family when May falls pregnant, and she is sent away to London. When war is declared in 1914, Bessie's life is shattered when her husband is killed in battle in France. Yet, when photographer Digby Parsons dies suddenly and leaves Bessie a camera, she is able to use it to set up her own photography business and support herself and her son. But Digby's jealous daughter, Joan, is enraged by her late father's generosity and will do everything she can to destroy Bessie and her business...
