About this listen

1874: Only days before she is to leave the foundling home where she grew up, Agnes Resolute discovers that, as a baby, she had been abandoned with a small token of her mother: a unicorn button. Agnes always believed her mother had been too poor to keep her, but after working as a laundress in the home she recognises the button as belonging to Genevieve Breckby, the beautiful and headstrong daughter of a local noble family. Agnes had seen Genevieve once, in the local village, and had never forgotten her. Despite having no money, Agnes will risk everything in a quest that will take her from the bleak moors of northern England to the harsh streets of London, then on to Paris and Ceylon. As Agnes follows her mother's trail, she makes choices that could cost her dearly. Finally, in Australia, she tracks Genevieve down. But is Genevieve capable of being the mother Agnes hopes she will be?©2017 Kimberley Freeman (P)2017 Bolinda Publishing Contemporary Contemporary Romance Romance England

A very enjoyable story.

I enjoyed the story and the performance. It takes a few chapters to get started, but once the characters are developed the story is engaging.

Unexpected delight

I listened to this on a whim and was quickly drawn in to the intertwined stories. It had everything- historical and modern timelines, love story, family dynamics, strong female main characters, and interesting secondary characters with depth.

Didn’t care for the narrator

I liked the story and that is what keep me listening. I didn’t care for the narrator’s voice. She sounded too old to be the voice of the main character Agnes in my opinion. I did finish it despite the narration and my guess of how it would
end was correct.

Overcoming Obstacles is Always a Great Theme

While I thought the character's naivete was ridiculous, I was rooting for her. Resolute was the perfect last name for her but her middle name was "gullible." She had spunk, determination and grit. While the book was a little predictable, it was still enjoyable.

SPOILER ALERT: I am glad she made it half way around the world to find what she was looking for right in front of her face.

A Treasure

I loved this story on so many levels and identified with the lead character, Agnes. The narrator was excellent. I recommend to anyone who has been a mother or a daughter
