IN 19TH CENTURY ENGLAND, Jane Kershaw, at ten years old, works every morning in a Lancashire cotton mill, and then goes to school in the afternoons. She is the youngest of eight sisters who all work in the cotton industry.
Each sister has a tale of their own, with blazing ambition, disillusionment and thwarted love. Can they, and Jane, in particular, escape their humdrum existence and realize their dreams in this strict and harsh Victorian era?

Growcott, Margaret: - Margaret Growcott has been a compulsive writer since High School when she won a prize for an essay. Born in England, she tends to write a great deal about the UK, but she has also written plenty about Canada, her home for the last forty years. Now living on Vancouver Island, when not writing, Margaret loves to play in a string orchestra.
