5.0 out of 5 stars Gilding the Lily, Nov 18 2009

By	Linda Cowan - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Gilding the Lily (Paperback)

This is a wonderful book about the lives of two sisters. Sarah marries Ralph Turner, a dock worker. Ralph is not all that he appears to be, there is a dark side to him, and Sarah quickly realizes she has made a mistake in marrying Ralph. Sarah's younger sister Lily, falls in love with Ralph's brother John. John is trying to make something of his life, and so he attends night school in the hopes of one day becoming an accountant. But tragedy strikes and Lily must leave. Lily takes on a position as a nursemaid to a family. The family plan a trip to American on board the The RMS Titanic. From this day forward the lives of the two sisters, and two brothers are never again the same. This is a wonderful book! I especially enjoyed reading about the Titanic. There was a lot of research done about the ship. If you enjoy Catherine Cookson books, you will certainly enjoy this one!
