Laura Cannock is on the run. Suspected of killing her bullying husband, his family is on a merciless prowl for revenge. Fleeing from her beloved home of Bolton to Manchester, Laura seeks refuge with her coal merchant uncle. But it soon becomes clear that a roof over her head comes with a price—the type so unbearable that she must escape once more.

Destitute and penniless, a stench-ridden housing court in the back streets of the factories is Laura's only hope of a dwelling—a place where both the filth and the kindness of neighbors overwhelm. Here, people stick together through the odds, leading Laura to true friendship and possibly love. But with the threat of her past still hanging over her, there's still one battle she must fight—and win—alone.

A gritty and page-turning historical saga set in Northern England in the late 1800s, perfect for fans of Dilly Court and Rosie Goodwin.
