In 1919 a sudden tragedy tears Betsy’s family apart. Her childhood and life, and that if her siblings, will change irrevocably.

Betsy grows up in the years between the two wars. During this time of hardship, she faces many struggles and losses.

Will she develop the strength and determination to find her own way in life?

Will things work out In The End ?

It is not often that I am lost for words but this time I am. Donna H Duhig is a literary genius, she brings to life not only her amazing characters but a time which we have never experienced. I felt Betsy’s pain and heartbreak, I cried for her. I urged her to make the right decisions and I despised those that bullied and abandoned her. I was warned to have the tissues ready as I am sure to cry, i didn’t believe this , I do not cry easily but by the end of the first chapter I was sobbing.

In The End is completely unputdownable. The plot kept me hooked from the first chapter to the last, nothing was certain. Beautifully written with glorious details that give this story the spark that keeps you coming back for more because you feel, see, hear and taste it.

Betsy is a incredible character, she carries on despite all of the hurdles that have been thrown her way, with hope and with the echo of her Fathers words ‘It will all work out in the end”. I highly recommend this book to those that enjoy historical fiction and those that enjoy Downton Abbey- No this is not all servant drama in a big house, but its in that harrowing era in which it is set that you will enjoy. And you will enjoy it, an emotional rollercoaster awaits. I can not wait to see what other literary delights Duhig has in store.
