Like no other
Taller and stronger, Rachel Smedling is not like other women in her isolated Pennine village. Without her, the household would fall apart, for her mother is ailing and her vicious drunken father seems to hate her so much he would offer money to any man who would wed her. Her only escape is to marry a kindly man and, with the birth of her son, her life seems complete. Her father's jealousy of her prosperity threatens to destroy all, but other people's lives cross hers, uncovering a long-buried secret.

- "Rachel Smeding is not like the other women in her isolated Pennine village; she is taller, stronger and weaves cloth like a man. When Rachel's mother dies, she is at the mercy of her violent father and escapes by marrying a kindly man, with whom she finds happiness, if not passion. But other peoples' lives cross hers, bringing pain and hope and uncovering a long-buried secret."@en
