This was a bit of dismal follow up to Wolf Hall. No hugely popular in the group as only three people managed to bother to meet up to discuss it.Basically a childless couple find a baby washed up in a boat at the isolated light house they look after. The woman so desperately wants a child she convinces herself and her husband that keeping the baby will do no harm.
This book has charmed readers across the world but unfortunately not our group, who found the story and the actions implausible.
The first time novel by Stedman has been snapped up by Dreamworks to made into a tear jerker.
