Stormbird
It's the early part of the century and Jenny's father is swindled, forced to sell up, take her from London to the Suffolk fishing village of his childhood and leave her with a strange and cold Aunt while he tries to make money as a fisherman. In befriending the son of the rich Gale family, Jenny gradually learns about a tragic past that involved her Aunt. The apparent death of her father and the tragic events of the past build up to a dramatic climax. It's a good, strong story with a nicely detailed historical and geographical background.
