When 12 year-old Jared Johnson's little sister dies, just hours
after his mother breathes her last after wasting away so her
children could eat, he knows he is on own. Desperate to avoid the
workhouse, he does everything he can to survive the inhospitable
streets of Birmingham. Jared is blessed with the gift of the gab
and soon attracts the attention of the King of the Tatters, Toby
McGuire. Recognising a kindred spirit, Toby soon has Jared out on a
cart hustling for rags. Jared loves driving his horse Bess,
shouting 'any old rags' as loud as he can, and it's not long before
he's thriving. But being successful can bring you enemies as well
as friends. Toby knows that Jared is destined for bigger things -
provided his big mouth doesn't get him hurt first... The top 10
best-seller is back with an unforgettable story about an
unforgettable boy. Heart-breaking and heart-warming, fans of Katie
Flynn, Val Wood and Lyn Andrews will fall in love with this latest
page-turner from Lindsey Hutchinson. What readers are saying about
