Miss Margaret Finch - the perfect 30s heroine and a young woman who will carve a space in your hearts alongside Mrs Hemingway, Mrs Bird and even William Lavery.

Claire McGlasson is a brave and brilliant new voice in fiction.' - JESS KIDD
 
Blackpool, 1938. Miss Margaret Finch - a rather demure young woman - has just begun work in a position that relies on her discretion and powers of observation, when her path is crossed by the disgraced Rector of Stiffkey (aka Harold Davidson) who is the subject of a national scandal, and newspaper headlines. Margaret is determined to discover the truth about Davidson; is he a maligned hero or an exploiter of the vulnerable? But her own troubles are never far away, and Margaret's fear that the history is about to repeat itself means she needs to uncover the truth urgently.
 
This deeply evocative novel ripples with the tension of a country not yet able to countenance the devastation of another war. Margaret walks us along the promenade, peeks into the baths and dares even a trip on the love boat on this her first seaside summer season, on a path more dangerous than she could ever have imagined.
