The Gypsy Bride is my first novel writing as Katie Hutton, in Zaffre’s ‘Memory Lane’ imprint. In the aftermath of the Great War, a lonely girl in a close-knit Evangelical community falls in love with a Gypsy who has come to work on the harvest. Opposed on all sides, they risk everything – including the noose – to be together.
