To Turn Full Circle is the first book in a trilogy by debut
author Linda Mitchelmore. Based in
1900’s Devon our heroine Emma Le Geoff life takes a turn for the worse when she
loses both her mother and brother. Her father had died sometime previous to the
story. Her mother’s landlord makes her homeless and she now has to make her own
way in the world. Not easy for a young
girl of sixteen when the rumour mongers have got you in their sights.
Linda has done her homework in regards to the historical
facts of the time. She shows us the beautiful fishing village but does not
burden with unnecessary details. What a great opening debut and I am eagerly
awaiting the other books in this trilogy.
Emma’s friend Seth tries to help but he is the landlords son enter
stage left the new fisherman in town Mathew Chaunter who takes Emma under is
wing but in doing so causes more complications for the young girl.
