Who or what do you cling to when hope's in short supply? Held in Mind is a memoir about intergenerational maternal trauma in which Lindsay is forced to confront her past and the women she has long sought to distance herself from. She ignores what binds them at her peril #xponorth

Held in Mind: A house fire in an ex-lace worker’s cottage near the source of the River Irvine sparks something in Lindsay it will take decades to dampen. Carried on a swell to its mouth at the Firth of Clyde, will she ever find peace in its choppy waters? #memoir #xponorth
