My Honourbright

On a windswept cliff above a tiny Cornish fishing village sits the deserted S. Canice Castle, once the home of the Vandeleur family. After the sudden deaths of their parents, six sisters are sent to different corners of Britain and even to France, each placed with strangers who promise a better future. Their scattered lives are linked only by occasional letters from the eldest, Marian, hinting at both hardship and hope.

The narrative follows Honora, the fourth sister, who arrives in France as a six‑year‑old waif under the care of a distant aunt, while her other sisters grow up as housekeepers, school staff, and even inmates of orphanages. As the years pass, their separate paths begin to intersect, drawing them back toward the looming, empty castle that holds the memory of their lost family. Listeners will be drawn into the gentle mysteries of duty, loss, and the quiet pull of a shared heritage.
