A love story set in Edwardian Suffolk. When Helena Mayrick is asked to research a book on her grandfather, Hubert Donaldson, she hesitates to agree, not only because the relationship between Donaldson and her grandmother is shrouded in mystery, but also because she is mourning her husband's death.

From the reviews:
‘Footsteps is put together with intelligence and feeling, a grasp of narrative pace and an empathy for the weather-buffetted Suffolk coast. She succeeds in suggesting the complexity, waywardness and inexplicable patches that constitute life. A good read.’
Elizabeth Buchan, The Times
‘Irreducibly delicate and tough-minded. I strongly suggest you read it and that someone gets a television script out of it.’

From the reviews for Footsteps
'This well-shaped and lovingly-crafted novel of domestic drama and emotion offers satisfying rewards. The theme of Footsteps - that of the effects of misplaced, frequently repressed love and passion on succeeding generations of women - is put together with intelligence and feeling, a grasp of narrative pace and an empathy for the weather-buffetted Suffolk coast where it is set. The author's touch is appealingly fresh and she succeeds in suggesting the complexity, waywardness and inexplicable patches that constitute life.' The Times
'Irreducibly delicate and tough-minded.' TES
