Edinburgh, 1953.

Kirsten Mowat, eighteen years old and with a joyful spring in her step, couldn''t be more in love with her sea-faring sweetheart Duncan Armstrong.

But, seven years later - after a hasty wedding, a twist of lies and wrenching loss - Duncan and Kirsten''s relationship has faded to tatters. When those closest to her turn their backs, Kirsten - alone, with a young family to care for - must gather all her spirit and strength if they are to survive.

From much-loved Millie Gray, The House on Rosebank Lane is an Edinburgh story of families entwined, of sorrow and hopefulness . . . and of a young mother''s love for her children and a transforming quest for happiness.

A poignant and authentic family saga which depicts the reality of working-class life in 1950s Edinburgh, perfect for fans of Annie Murray (Sisters of Gold), Jennifer Worth (Call the Midwife) and Dilly Court (Nettie''s Secret).
