The wonderfully nostalgic and heartwarming new novel from the
Sunday Times Top Ten bestselling author of The Beggar Maid. Born
out of wedlock when her mother was only fourteen, Lucy Pocket has
spent all her life in the care of her disreputable but charming
grandmother, Eva. They dodge from one poor lodging house to
another, always in debt and resorting to theft in order to exist.
Until her wealthy paternal grandfather buys her from Eva,
determined to bring Lucy up to be a lady. When her grandfather
dies, his despicable nephew cheats Lucy out of her inheritance,
except for a run-down lodging house in Whitechapel, where she is
forced to look after his three illegitimate children. Jilted by her
would-be fiance, Lucy is determined to make a life for herself and
the children, and to search for her long lost grandmother, creating
the family she has always longed for.
