From the Back Cover
Alison Read, orphaned when she was two years old, had for some years lived and worked with Paul Aylmer, her appointed guardian. Paul, an experienced antique dealer whose business thrived in the south-coast town of Sealock, had come to rely on Alison, who had quickly learned the trade.
But when he had asked her to value the contents of Beacon Ride, a chain of events was set off that led to the exposure of a secret he had for many years managed to conceal. As a result, Alison's relationship with Paul came under threat and she knew that only by confronting the situation head-on would her ambitions be realised.
Part-mystery, part-love story, and with its fascinating glimpses of the world of antiques in the 1960s, 'The Lady on my Left' displays yet another facet of Catherine Cookson's remarkable talent.
