Grandmother's Footsteps by Anna Anderson

'Grandmother's Footsteps' is a powerful story of two women separated by time, both struggling to acknowledge secrets from the past and seeking atonement for their actions. Deserted by her husband and recovering from a serious illness, Bella is rebuilding her life. A chance encounter at the local Charity shop unwittingly sets off another parallel story. In the lining of of an old crocodile bag donated to Barnados, the kindly but absent minded Shirley discovers and reads a diary written by Bella's grandmother Jean. Set in 1920 in a mental asylum in Glasgow, Jeannie's story of guilt and shame acts as a counterpoint to Bella's struggle for survival and acknowledgement of past regrets. It is left to Shirley to decide if the two Grandmothers' stories can come together, as Bella takes time to discover where she wants to be and who she wants to take with her on a new journey into the future.
