The nurses of Eastby End
Jacobs, Anna2024
Book
When Rachel qualifies as nurse, she does so because she wants to help others and make a difference. But she is also running from a past life that must stay hidden forever. She applies for another job near Eastby End and is shocked to find it a little more than a slum. It's clear she will need to work hard and keep her wits about her to win the trust of the villagers. When Joss Townley's father dies, he sells up immediately to begin travelling but is called home by his mother in an emergency - in order to save the family's fortune he must take on a house in a place called Eastby End. He has no idea what he has bought, and is appalled to see his new neighbours' misery and anger. A meeting with the mayor, Walter Crossley, gives him direction and focus for the first time in his life, and brings him into contact with Rachel. Can they both survive life in Eastby End? Will it be the making of them?
