A young woman climbs the steps of a smart London address on her first day as a live-in nanny. In Kent in the 1950s a little girl called Muriel is growing up bewildered and lonely. Despite her best efforts to please everyone, nobody wants anything to do with her. A figure in a 19th century painting inspires intrigue and a sense of connection across the years. But what binds these three women together? In 'Family Likeness', Caitlin Davies blends storytelling with historical research to create a story of motherless children, missed chances and secrets reaching back to World War Two.
