A wonderful tale set in 18th Century London exploring the void between the rich and poor.
Bess Bright, a determined young woman, has had a child...a child she can ill afford to look after. Placing her in the Foundling hospital seems like the best thing to do, that is until Bess comes to claim her after 6 years of waiting...only to discover she’s already been collected, in fact, not only collected - but collected by herself a long time ago.
The following decisions, heart-ache and adventures will pull you in, and capture your soul.
Stacey Halls is an exemplary writer, and well deserves all the accolades.
If you’re looking for a book that you just can’t walk away from, one that will keep you up late at night, one that sticks with you during the day...this is it.
