The heart-breaking and compelling new book set in a Victorian
workhouse from the author of the The Orphans of Halfpenny Street
When Lucy and her brother, Joshua, are orphaned, it falls to Joshua
to provide for them both, but he is barely into his teens and in
his naivety, falls prey to bad influences and drink. Lucy is
desperate to avoid the workhouse, but when Joshua loses their
meagre savings they are thrown out onto the street and, in dire
poverty, it isn't long before Lucy finds herself at its gates -
almost a fate worse than death. Inside the workhouse, Lucy meets
with unkindness and cruelty and she knows she must dig deep within
herself if she is to survive, let alone thrive. What Lucy needs is
a friend and she is surprised to find one in the most unlikely
place...
