Never Look Back is an epic saga of life, death, tears and laughter, from a storyteller thousands have come to love and trust.
Moving from the slums of Victorian London to the plains of the Wild West, from the darkest edges of New York, to the gold rush of San Francisco, Never Look Back is the story of beautiful, intelligent Matilda, who rises out of poverty to forge a new life for herself in the land of the free.
Escaping the deprivation she was born into, Matilda travels to America with Giles, a Presbyterian minister, his wife Lily and their young daughter Tabitha. There she loses her heart and learns the lessons her childhood never taught her - that we are all created equal, that tragedy afflicts those who don't deserve it, and that true love comes when we least expect it. Above all, she discovers that life must go on, no matter how painful, and that she must never look back . . .
