The Irish Midwife (2025)
(Irish Midwives, book 1)
Seána Tinley
"What a fascinating slice of social history. Seana Tinley has written a beautiful, lyrical love letter to handywomen and midwives through the ages. At a time when childbirth has become so institutionalised, this beautiful book reminds us of the instinctive care, skill, empathy and wisdom that women have at their fingertips. All generations will love this book. I adored it."

The Eights (2025)
Joanna Miller
"I fell in love with this book from the first chapter... A vivid portrait of young women finding their way in a man's world under the long shadow of the Great War. It's dripping with historical detail...The true strength of this novel is the realisation of how powerful female solidarity can be. A joyous anthem to friendship, it made me want to pick up the phone to my best girlfriends."

Beyond Summerland (2024)
Jenny Lecoat
"A masterpiece! Utterly gripping and spellbinding, Jenny's pen is a time machine, transporting you back to the isle of Jersey and a community recovering from war. Beyond Summerland is packed full of drama, tension, secrets and surprises. Add in a cast of richly drawn characters and a meticulously researched storyline and you have a book that lingers long after the last page."
