Amy longs to meet the father who had left home before she was born but when Amos Dodd appears on the doorstep, one wet afternoon, her dreams are shattered. He is not the rich adventurer she had expected, but a sadistic killer recently released from Armley jail. When her mother dies, Amy knows that if she is to survive, she must escape her father's clutches.
Walking the towpath of the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, she encounters a bargee and his wife and travels with them to Saltaire. Here she meets a young engineer from the mill and makes a shocking discovery. Determined to uncover the bitter truth about the man she hates and unravel the mystery surrounding her birth, Amy returns to Leeds. But by doing so she steps straight back into the lion's den.
The Black Thread is a dramatic tale set on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal in 1898.
