The Mapmaker's Wife: A spellbinding story of love, secrets and devastating choices
Hannah Evans
A forbidden love.
An impossible decision.
A family changed forever...
It is 1954 and bookkeeper Bea Bell has lived in Grenada her whole life with her loving family.
But she longs to see what's beyond the horizon and the pages of her beloved paperbacks. Surely there's more to life than braving hurricanes and working in a bank!
Patrick Allen, an Irish-English surveyor, travelled to Grenada for work. It was only supposed to be a few short months but when he sees enigmatic Bea, the connection between them is immediate.
And the two find themselves swept away in a whirlwind romance on the shores of Bea's idyllic island...
Over the years, Bea and Patrick travel the world together from Grenada to Dublin to Tanganyika and Freetown. And as they build a life and family together, it becomes clear that not everyone is so accepting of their love...
THE MAPMAKER'S WIFE is a sweeping love story which explores race, identity, friendship and family and will appeal to fans of Dinah Jefferies and Jojo Moyes.
