Synopses

Ragged Rose

Rose is forced into an impossible decision as her family’s future begins to unravel. Keeping a dreadful secret and afraid to turn to her strict father, she is left to do whatever it takes to save her brother from the hangman’s noose, while her sister Cora is drawn towards a man with far from honourable intentions. When their father casts his children out, Rose must fight to protect them all, even as the danger closes in.

The River Maid

In London, 1854, twenty-year-old Essie Chapman works as a boatman on the river, living in poverty-stricken Limehouse under her father’s control. One night she ferries a mysterious man from a foreign ship to the Thames, and he soon takes a room in her home, giving only the name ‘Raven’. Curiosity leads Essie to follow him, drawing her into events far beyond anything she expected.

The Button Box

In the shadowed alleyways of Seven Dials, Clara clings to a single precious button and the box that holds it, the last thing of value her family owns. Once a hero to his daughters, the Carter sisters’ father has become a drunk who has gambled away their security and placed them all in peril. With four sisters depending on her, Clara dreams of opening a shop that could keep them safe and sheltered.

The Swan Maid

Lottie Lane is alone in the world, working as a chambermaid at one of London’s busiest inns under a vicious landlady. Exhausted by drudgery, she has little room for hope until an injured soldier is brought to The Swan and she nurses him back from the brink. From that moment, her life shifts as she follows the soldiers from the docks of Chatham to a far-flung battlefield marked by darkness and despair.
