Johnny Cooper's Field
Description
From the author of the BBC Radio 2 Book Club Recommended Read, The Tin Nose Shop.
On Christmas Eve, homeless Johnny saves the life of a beautiful young stranger. Against all odds, the two fall deeply in love. But Elizabeth's wealthy father is horrified by the relationship and uses his power to tear them apart. When Elizabeth discovers she is pregnant, the child is taken away and given up--without Johnny ever knowing his son exists.
Twenty years later, that lost child, searching for answers about his identity and past, is unknowingly drawn back into his parents' unfinished love story. As he uncovers the truth, he also finds love of his own, proving that some connections can survive even the deepest separations.
A moving and emotional novel about love, class, sacrifice, and the enduring bonds between parents and children, this is a story of hope, second chances, and the ties that refuse to be broken.
