At the age of eleven young Lizzie Mudie’s life changes forever. With the death of her mother in the most shocking disaster Dundee has ever seen, Lizzie is forced to grow up quickly. She discovers a strength beyond her years and when an unexpected legacy bestows her the dilapidated Green Tree Mill, she is determined to turn things around. Lizzie becomes a formidable mistress, but is she prepared for the price she—and those she loves—will have to pay for her success? An excellent choice for fans of Dilly Court and Tessa Barclay.
