Jonathan Harvey's sixth novel: The Years She Stole


Corrie writer Jonathan Harvey's sixth novel goes on sale in paperback today.

It's called The Years She Stole and it's billed as a big-hearted novel about two women born decades apart, whose lives are unexpectedly intertwined.

2017: Pregnant Rachel Taylor is enjoying a holiday in Morocco when she gets the phone call to say her mother hasn’t got much time left to live. With a head of mixed emotions she returns to the village where she grew up to say her last goodbyes. It’s true to say their relationship had often been strained and Rachel had never quite understood why. When clearing out her mother’s things she thinks she finds an answer, and her world is changed forever.

1978: Shirley Burke is on a family holiday at Butlin’s when she first sets eyes on Doug, a man considerably older than herself. When his daughter goes missing one night, Shirley is the one who finds her and returns her to him. When his gratitude turns into something else, Shirley realises this is her time to shine. But Doug is married, and her young life is about to get very complicated.
