Publisher's summary

Winner of the Barbara Hammond Award 2017

The Great War is over, and the inhabitants of Raumsey Island struggle to regain their livelihood. Seventeen-year-old Annie Reid is a spirited, ambitious girl, determined not to end up a herring gutter or go into service. Annie befriends a young schoolteacher, Alexander Garcia, who promises to help her further her education but, after tragedy strikes, Annie pursues a nursing career amidst the political complexity of Glasgow. Garcia dreams of a return to his Spanish roots, but Spain is also in political turmoil. Annie’s love for the teacher remains through the years, but will love overcome the barriers and prejudice of race, religion, beliefs and distance?

Enduring Tale of Strength and Resilience Wonderfully Narrated

I loved Annie's journey and struggles yet ultimately still finds her place in 20th Century Scotland. The narration so perfectly captured the essence of Scotland with both its working class and high society. I couldn't stop listening to Isa's Daughter!

Brilliant narration!

The narrator’s style and voicing given to each character brought another layer of depth to this well-written story. I was so enthralled listening that I ended up running further than planned because I wanted to hear what would happen next.

I will listen to more books by this author and narrator team!
