A novel written by Maggie Hope which tells the story of Lottie who was sent to the workhouse on the death of her mother.
The story comes across as one of Maggie Hope's better works, and while being descriptive of Lottie and her life, the story has a more solid foundation that the reader will find brings life to the book. Life in the workhouse is grim but Lottie finds herself a niche which makes life bearable within the workhouse. Lottie suffers tragedy, happiness, sorrow as she grows up and has an unexpected ending. Maggie Hope keeps the reader's attention from the beginning to the end of the book.
A really nice read, good descriptive work and enoyable too.
