About this listen
Discover a BRAND-NEW, heart-pounding Victorian industry saga of courage, survival and redemption. Perfect for fans of Rosie Goodwin, Dilly Court and Daisy Styles
'Kay Brellend is a new star in the making!' Bestselling author Rosie Clarke
In the shadows of 1887 London, one woman must fight for her future – and her child's.
When Amelia Spencer finds herself unmarried, pregnant, and cast out by society, she flees to the Bryant & May match factory, searching for her estranged sister, Sadie. But the East End is no refuge - Sadie is trapped in a violent marriage, and the factory is as dangerous as the streets outside.
Desperate for a fresh start, Amelia takes work at Bryant & May and dares to dream of a better life for herself and her son. A chance meeting with the kind-hearted Nicholas Dupree offers hope - but Whitechapel is no place for fragile dreams.
When the shadows of Amelia’s past return with a vengeance - and a killer begins stalking the women of Whitechapel - Amelia must fight to protect her child and the life she’s struggled to claim, before everything she’s fought for is destroyed.
Love, survival, and dark secrets collide in a heart-pounding saga of courage and redemption.
