Tears filled Esther’s eyes and ran unashamedly down her cheeks but she was smiling as she reached out and clasped Will’s hand. ‘Oh, Dad, oh, me Dad . . .’ was all she could say.

A happiness such as she had never before known flooded through her.

Now, at last, she had everything she had ever wanted.

Sow the Seed

The second book in the Lincolnshire Fleethaven trilogy

Lincolnshire, 1926. Kate Hilton is devastated when she is sent away to boarding school by her mother. It means she will be separated from her childhood sweetheart, Danny. But the enforced distance between them just makes Kate even more determined to marry her first love.

It isn’t until she is eighteen, and finally told the bitter truth about her family’s past, that Kate realizes that she and Danny can never be together. Torn apart by the revelations, Kate finds unexpected escape when she leaves Fleethaven Point to become a driver in the WAAF.

In the chaos and destruction of the Second World War, Kate will witness many things. For as well as all the pain, suffering and loss, she will experience a love that finally allows her to leave the past behind . . .

Reap the Harvest

The third book in the Lincolnshire Fleethaven trilogy

Following the disastrous floods of 1953, Ella Hilton finds herself living at Brumbys’ Farm with her grandmother Esther and is soon made acutely aware of the mysteries surrounding her family’s past.

As Ella grows up and falls in love, the story of three generations of women – Esther, Kate and Ella – comes full circle and history seems destined to repeat itself.

In the concluding part of this glorious Lincolnshire trilogy, Margaret Dickinson brings the 1950s vividly to life in a story of secrets and love, buried under years of pride and misunderstanding.

About the Author

Born in Gainsborough, Lincolnshire, Margaret Dickinson moved to the coast at the age of seven and so began her love for the sea and the Lincolnshire landscape. Her ambition to be a writer began early and she had her first novel published at the age of twenty-five. This was followed by twenty-nine further titles including Plough the Furrow, Sow the Seed and Reap the Harvest, which make up her Lincolnshire Fleethaven trilogy. Many of her novels are set in the heart of her home county but in Tangled Threads and Twisted Strands, the stories include not only Lincolnshire but also the framework knitting and lace industries of Nottingham. Her 2012 and 2013 novels, Jenny’s War and The Clippie Girls, were top-twenty bestsellers and her 2014 novel Fairfield Hall was a top-ten bestseller.
