A historical novel of life, love and murder in Victorian England.

This well-researched true story follows the life of Sarah Ann Davis as she leaves her Black Country home in search of a better life in the booming cotton district of East Lancashire.

Sarah goes on to work in service and the humour and hardship of life in the cotton village of Barrowford are superbly described.

The humanity of northern people shines through the text but even this cannot prevent the final tragedy that is waiting in the wings.
