Summary
When Eloise Cribb receives the news that her husband's ship has been lost at sea, she wonders how she is ever going to manage. With two young children, the rent overdue, and almost nothing to live on, she has no alternative but to turn to his estranged family for help. She sets off on the long and arduous journey to Yorkshire, but is met with hostility and soon realises she has little choice but to return to London.
Virtually destitute and desperate, Eloise is faced with her worst nightmare: she must either go to the workhouse, or abandon her children at the Foundling Hospital. But she is determined to keep them safe and under her protective wing at all costs.

Narration
This was an excellent story again by Dilly Court however I don't think Annie Aldington was the correct choice to narrate this book.

EXCELLANT NO OTHER WORD
Not once did I wander off whilst listening to this sad at times but enchanting tale.!
This is my 3rd book by DC and this is my favourite.
I follow Annie Aldington as a narrator and just love her story telling and fab accents.
This book is a must!
