Kate's Legacy

In 1942, Kate Denis drowned herself in a stinking pond of run-off from a leather tannery. Or so her daughter Marie was told. According to the story, Kate found herself pregnant by an American GI while her husband fought in Africa. In despair, she killed herself. All through her childhood, schoolmates taunted Marie as the daughter of a whore. But who would drown herself in such a place, leaving her baby unprotected? Marie hated the story. It was her dying wish that the truth be discovered. Fifty years after Kate's death, Marie's husband Phil returns to England to uncover the truth. Kate's Legacy is a war story, a love story, and a story of redemption.
