Island life is hard... leaving is harder.

In 1895, a Northumbrian island welcomes two new residents. Clara and Jimmy are born on the same night, to families poles apart. Clara is an islander through and through; content to live among the rhythms and barren beauty of Holy Island. Jimmy's future is set in stone; fishing with the father he despises on the family boat.

When tragedy forces them from their island and each other, they join the herring season in a bid to survive.

Jimmy strikes out for Seahouses, where he joins a Scots herring crew. From Seahouses he can still see the island, his father too close for comfort. The crew’s departure for Lowestoft brings welcome relief.

Clara is sent to North Shields, to live with her wealthy, estranged grandparents. A chance encounter with a group of herring girls offers her an escape from the grief filled luxury of her grandparents' home.

1913 is a record-breaking year, but as Clara and Jimmy chase shoals of silver darlings to Lowestoft, their paths are dogged by war, injury and misunderstandings. Set adrift from all they know; will they ever find each other? And will they ever find their way home?

Before their new life can begin, tragedy strikes, threatening to destroy everything Marnie holds dear. And when war engulfs the world, Marnie’s strength is tested further than she thought possible.

Will Marnie make the right choice for her family? And will her sacrifice provide the future she wants for her children?

The Choice She Made: An evocative and heartbreaking historical family saga

1941, Suffolk

With her in-laws in desperate need of help, Marnie is forced to return to Suffolk, leaving her precious daughter Annie behind in Cornwall.

But Lowestoft is a very different town to the one she left. Ravaged by war, and a mere twenty miles from enemy lines, the seaside town she once loved now resembles a military base, and is firmly in Hitler’s line of fire.

As she tries to rebuild her life amidst the rubble and horror of war, Marnie struggles to free herself from the grief and shame of past mistakes.

When naval officer Frank Merton moves into her home, he brings with him a vision of a brighter future, in which Marnie can find happiness.

But in order to move forward, Marnie must first confront the past. Can she forgive herself before it’s too late? And with the end of war in sight, what kind of life will her daughter be coming home to?
