Deny Me Not

"Some day I will know who I am," Hannah Casey said as she closed the door of her room in the nurses' quarters behind her. "And I will hold my head high." Deny Me Not is a compelling rural novel for our times where family secrets come home to roost. Young Irish woman, Hannah Casey, pursues the father who has never acknowledged her; land hunger, illegitimacy and inheritance conflict rear their heads and characters experience the fallout that can cause – even decades on. Will the truth set everyone free or will it knock them sideways? Will Hannah survive the battle to get her farming father to admit the truth and where will she find love and respect along the way as she battles for recognition? Will her Long Lost Family experience be a good one?
