Debut Novel of the Year - East Anglian Book Awards

Silver Harvest is a sweeping family saga charting the dramatic history of an East Anglian port and resort across two turbulent centuries.

1826 - Jacob Chapman stands on the shoreline, preparing to put to sea and hunt the herring shoals, just as his ancestors have done for centuries. He is unaware that his small community is about to be engulfed by a far-reaching expansion that will see the town rise to become one of the premier ports and resorts on the East Coast.

Successive generations of the Chapman family navigate Victorian ambition, Edwardian elegance, and the challenges of post-war Britain as their fortunes rise and fall alongside that of the town.
