Will her secret past threaten her dreams?

Liverpool, 1864. When Jemima Jenkins's beloved Pa passes away leaving her orphaned, she is cruelly thrown out of her lodgings and dismissed from her cherished job as a schoolmistress.

Offered a temporary home with her best friend Betty, Jemima is determined to avoid the workhouse and get back on her feet, even daring to hope about one day opening her own school for poor children.

But when she uncovers a mysterious letter, revealing shocking revelations about her past, Jemima's plans are cast into doubt.

Will Jemima's dreams come true or will the secret about who she really is jeopardise her one chance at finding happiness?

An enthralling and empowering Victorian saga, perfect for fans of Maggie Ford, Lyn Andrews, and Rosie Goodwin.

About the Author
Judy Summers is an avid reader, historian and mother of three. Her forebears - some of whom probably entered England via Liverpool in the Victorian era - were miners, labourers and domestic servants.
