A Liverpool legacy
Baker, Anne, 1914-2014
Book
On a spring day in 1947, Millie and Pete Maynard take their daughter Sylvie on a boat trip that is to end in tragedy. Poor Sylvie blames herself for the accident and Millie needs all her strength to comfort her children and overcome her grief. Then Pete's Will is read and further heartache lies in store. Meanwhile, Pete's younger brother and his good-for-nothing sons try to take control of the family business, but they've underestimated Millie's indomitable spirit. She's worked in Maynard's perfume laboratory for 18 years and is determined to protect her husband's legacy no matter what obstacles are thrown in her way.
