Born in the dark horrors of the Victorian Bedlam, Beth Thursday was a no one. An inconsequential inconvenience.

After eight years of dreaming of an unknown mother rescuing her from the workhouse, Beth is unexpectedly liberated to become an apprentice in Mr Whitaker's tailor's shop. Against all the odds, Mrs Whitaker becomes a maternal figure to the young girl who shows all the signs of a gifted seamstress.

But fate's cruel hand had not finished denying Beth the comforts of a family.

Lady Caroline comes into Beth's life as a godsend. A wealthy patron in need of beautiful dresses to be made. But there is more to her appearing at the tailor's shop at first apparent. Two lives from different classes become intertwined in the worst of conditions.

Is having a family worth such suffering? Should the women deny each other and be relieved of the tortures beset upon them in the name of greed and a family name? Was the madness real? Would the answers be found along the unforgiving corridors of the asylum?

I could not set it aside! Written very well. It kept me intrigued and wanted to know what happened next. I have to admit, I did get emotional! And the ending is perfect. Her spirit kept her going!
