The Devonshire Sagas span eleven novels published between 2004 and 2025, each one drawing on a different aspect of Victorian Dartmoor’s industrial and social history. The Harbour Master’s Daughter opens the series, and subsequent books move through the communities of quarry workers, railway navvies, gunpowder mill employees, and convent girls — each story anchored in careful research and emotional honesty.
Tania Anne Crosse has spent years walking Dartmoor and studying its archives, and that familiarity shows in the texture of the series. The moorland landscape isn’t just a backdrop; it shapes the characters’ lives, their work, and the limits placed on what they can hope for.
