Shadows of Time

A successful business woman in Australia, when her mother, Maggie Mitchell, suddenly dies, Cathy returns to her roots in rural Yorkshire for the funeral. Here, she hopes to rekindle the closeness she once had with her sister, June, and to rediscover the freedom of her childhood. Cathy and June are confronted by revelations of their mother’s hidden past, as the will reveals the existence of an unknown sibling, and all is not as straightforward as Cathy had hoped. Maggie’s own story unfolds in a flashback to the complexities of her life between 1945 and the birth of her daughters, and as the sisters’ understanding grows, the shadows cast by the past become apparent.
