Can this East End girl find a better life?
Born in a tenement on the Isle of Dogs, Jessie has higher hopes for her future. When she manages to land a job at the Telephone Exchange, her earnings allow her to join the choir at the People's Palace. There, she catches the eye of the charming James Medway who sweeps her off her feet.
But married life isn't a bed of roses, and when Jessie falls pregnant it quickly becomes clear that James is far from the doting husband she'd hoped for. Can Jessie find a way to stay strong for her baby?
A heart-warming and gripping East End Saga, perfect for fans of Dilly Court and Maggie Hope.
Maggie Ford was born in the East End of London but at the age of six she moved to Essex, where she lived for the rest of her life. After the death of her first husband, when Maggie was only twenty-six, she went to work as a legal secretary until she remarried in 1968. She wrote short stories from the early 1970s up to her death at the age of 92.
