The pelicans

In this moving tale, sisters Rosamund and Frances find their world turned upside down when their guardian, the kind but domineering Mrs. Tregaskis, takes them from their childhood home in the idyllic Wye Valley to live at Porthlew in Cornwall. As the girls grow into young women, each must navigate her own path - Rosamund through the ups and downs of early love, and the devoutly religious Frances as she is drawn towards life in a convent. When a tragic loss threatens to separate the sisters forever, Rosamund must search her heart to discover what matters most.
With its vivid characters and themes of sisterhood, faith and sacrifice, The Pelicans is a classic story that will resonate with readers of all ages.
