When Elsa Gripper dies in childbirth on Christmas Eve, 1912, her grief-stricken husband is unable to cope with his two newborn babies, Lucy and Patsy, so the twins are separated. Lucy is taken home with Elsa's parents, who run a successful business, Mersey Antiques, and she grows up spoiled and pampered with no interest in the family firm. Patsy has a more down-to-earth upbringing, living with their father and other grandmother above the Railway Arms. And through further tragedy she learns to be responsible from an early age. Then Patsy is invited to work for her grandfather at Mersey Antiques, which she hopes will bring her closer to Lucy. But it is to take a series of dramatic events for the twins to be drawn together.

A great read,

This review is from: Mersey Duet (Paperback)
I enjoyed this book of 2 sisters brought up so differently. They were separated by the death of their mother, Patsy is brought up by her father and his mother above the pub where her grandmother is the publican and her sister is brought up across the road above the antiques business that is owned by their maternal grandparents.Patsy was my favourite sister as she was so down to earth. I enjoyed the story of their lives.
