Stone Cradle by Louise Doughty
Spanning more than a century in the English Fens, this novel follows a Romany family from a fierce, itinerant matriarch and her troubled daughter to a modern descendant determined to uncover her hidden heritage. As long-buried secrets of love, loss, and betrayal surface, the story explores the pull between travelling tradition and settled life, the sting of prejudice, and the bonds of motherhood. It is a portrait of resilience and identity in which the past presses insistently upon the present.
