Nancy Carson’s unputdownable period sagas are set mostly in the Black Country, a heavily
industrialised area of England’s Midlands that lies west of Birmingham, and which was the
cradle of the Industrial Revolution.
Full of humour, romance, and poignancy, Nancy’s novels are also sensuous, gritty and
down-to-earth, featuring engaging heroines and a toe-curling variety of heros, as well as
other unforgettable characters drawn from all walks of life.
Nancy’s Carson’s latest novels
Missing You, Honour Thy Father, A Fallen Woman.
HONOUR THY FATHER
Honour Thy Father is Nancy’s
latest novel, and different
from any that have gone
before.
In 1853, in Hobart Town, Van
Diemen’s Land (later known as
Tasmania), Isabel Saxby is a
successful business woman
with independent means, due
in part to an anonymous
benefactor.
Unmarried, Isabel falls in love
with Barnaby Micklejohn, a
widower assigned from
England to work as an official
in the colonial government.
While their romance
flourishes, Isabel carefully
avoids divulging her past . . .
But then she receives a letter
from her mother begging her
to return to Worcester in
England to say goodbye forever
to her dying father. On the
voyage to England on Brunel’s
SS Great Britain her
extraordinary past is revealed.
But at what cost to her future
with Barnaby?
