Part of the The India Tea series

Paperback / softback

Description

Lush, green, fragrant: the Indian hills of Assam are full of promise.

But eighteen-year-old Clarissa Belhaven is full of worry.

The family tea plantation is suffering, and so is her father, still grieving over the untimely death of his wife, while Clarissa’s fragile sister, Olive, needs love and resourceful care. Beautiful and headstrong, Clarissa soon attracts the attention of young, brash Wesley Robson, a rival tea planter.

Yet before his intentions become fully clear, tragedy befalls the Belhavens and the sisters are wrenched from their beloved tea garden to the industrial streets of Tyneside. A world away from the only home she has ever known, Clarissa must start again.

Using all her means, she must endure not only poverty but jealousy and betrayal too.

Will the reappearance of Wesley give her the link to her old life that she so desperately craves? Or will a fast-changing world and the advent of war extinguish hope forever?Revised edition: This edition of The Tea Planter's Daughter includes editorial revisions.
