The Silent Tide
Hore Rachel
When Emily Gordon,
editor at a London publishing house, commissions an account of great
English novelist Hugh Morton, she finds herself steering a tricky path
between Morton's formidable widow, Jacqueline, who's determined to
protect his secrets, and the biographer, charming and ambitious Joel
Richards. But someone is sending Emily mysterious missives about Hugh
Morton's past and she discovers a buried story that simply has to be
told…
One winter's day in 1948, nineteen year old Isabel Barber
arrives at her Aunt Penelope's house in Earl's Court having run away
from home to follow her star. A chance meeting with an East European
refugee poet leads to a job with his publisher, McKinnon & Holt, and
a fascinating career beckons. But when she develops a close editorial
relationship with charismatic young debut novelist Hugh Morton and the
professional becomes passionately personal, not only are all her plans
put to flight, but she finds herself in a struggle for her very
survival.
