Faith Is All
Anne Lister’s revelation that her new wife Ann Walker is moving in with her in Shibden shocks Ann’s relatives and leaves Anne's former lover Mariana devastated.
Yorkshire, 1834. A month on from their private marriage ceremony, Ann Walker remains in York under the care of her doctor while Anne Lister, with fresh financial confidence and entrepreneurial vigour, renovates Shibden Hall in preparation for her wife to move in.
Learning of their plan to cohabit, Ann’s protective tribe of relations are increasingly suspicious of Anne’s motives, but they can’t find the right words to express their fears about the nature of her relationship. Meanwhile, as the couple prepare for a fabulous honeymoon abroad, devastated Mariana Lawton’s jealousy signals more trouble ahead.
