The Sugar Planter's Daughter: A beautiful heartbreaking novel

The Sugar Planter's Daughter: A beautiful heartbreaking novel of love, loss and hidden tragedy (The Quint Chronicles)

A breathtaking and unforgettable story of a woman torn between her family and the man she loves.

1912, British Guiana, South America: Winnie Cox is about to marry George Quint, the love of her life. Born into a life of luxury and privilege on her fatherâ€™s sugar plantation, Winnie has turned against her family by choosing to be with George â€“ a poor black postman from the slums.

Winnie may be living in poverty, but sheâ€™s got what sister Johanna doesnâ€™t have: a loving husband and a beautiful family. And despite Johanna running her familyâ€™s sugar plantation, Winnie will always be their motherâ€™s favourite daughter, a bitter pill for Johanna to swallow.

Then Winnieâ€™s son falls ill and she must travel to Venezuela desperate for a cure. With her sister away, Johanna finds herself increasingly drawn to George. But he only has eyes for Winnie. Johanna, stung by the rejection and the fragile state of her own marriage, is out for revenge â€“ no matter how devastating the consequences.

A compelling and evocative story of betrayal, temptation and buried secrets that will captivate fans of Dinah Jefferies and Kate Furnivall.
