Sisters of Gold is an emotional and heart-warming story with a
richly imagined Birmingham setting, from Annie Murray, author of
The Doorstep Child. Sisters Margaret and Annie lost their mother
years ago, they long for her every day. Their protective and devout
father keeps the girls close. But he can't protect them all the
time . . . When a scandal rocks this family unit to their core, the
girls are forced to leave their home under a shadow of secrecy. The
girls arrive in the Birmingham's famous jewellery quarter one
stifling August evening to stay with their uncle, goldsmith
Ebenezer Watts. Annie takes up work at a nearby factory, but it's
not the work that interests her. Her kind and soft nature, means
that her attention is drawn to the immediate need of her
impoverished colleagues and the wretched lives they lead.
Meanwhile, Ebenezer employs Margaret as a chain maker. When
Margaret meets silversmith Philipp Tallis, she is drawn to him
instantly. Margaret is forced closer to this mysterious man in the
cramped workshop, as they create objects of beauty. But what is it
the Sisters of Gold are hiding? Even though they've escaped their
past once, it can't stay hidden forever . . .
