Maggie Rowan

Read by Jacqueline King

Maggie's two main desires in life were a child she could love and one of
those big houses on Brampton Hill, which was what she had in her sights
when she asked Christopher Taggart to marry her. She meant to have them
all, despite the scorn of some folk, who thought they knew what Maggie
Rowan deserved better than she did herself!


The Tinker's Girl

Read by Alan Gilchrist

Jinnie Howlett, who started off as an orphan in a workhouse, was offered
a place as a maid of all work for the Shalemans, at Tollet's Ridge Farm,
and discovered that she had exchanged one kind of drudgery for another.
Bruce, one of the sons, realising that there was more to her, defended
her against the others. When she met Richard Baxton-Powell, Jinnie
realised how different and tempting life was beyond her place of work;
now confident and mature, she was suddenly thrust into womanhood and the
path to her own destiny became clear.
