About this listen
THE TOP 50 BESTSELLER, a gritty, historical saga from author AnneMarie Brear
Can she keep the baby she loves?
Yorkshire Dales 1850
As a terrible storm rages, Annabelle Wallis is shocked to find a distressed young woman at her cottage door, heavy with child. Moments later a baby girl is born. But by dawn, the mother has vanished, leaving behind the helpless child wrapped only in a silk peacock shawl.
When news spreads that Lady Eliza Hartley, sister to wealthy estate owner, John Hartley, has been found dead, Annabelle realises the terrible secret she has stumbled on. Terrified she’ll be blamed for Eliza’s death, Annabelle flees to the filthy slums of York, where she plans to raise the precious orphan as her own.
The cobbled streets of York’s slums are no place for a young woman like Annabelle or a Hartley babe and John Hartley is determined to bring them both home. But Annabelle proves impossible to find.
Annabelle can’t hide forever from the wealthy Hartley family, but can she ever give up the baby she loves?
The Orphan in the Peacock Shawl is an emotional story of strength and love, perfect for fans of Dilly Court, Rosie Goodwin and Rita Bradshaw.

I heard about this book from the author on the memory Lane club, Facebook page. I really enjoyed the story, the characters and as always Anne Dover brought the story to life. Highly recommend it to anyone who loves these kind of books. Jen from Tassie. 🇦🇺

a nice story but very predictable and tired theme
this narrator is a always brilliant in her delivery. the story was pretty ordinary though. the themes have been done countless times before and this just had a different mask on it while underneath you could see every line coming a mile off. his light easy listening to help you sleep
