About the book

Dorothy Hare, the daughter of a poor country clergyman, lives a quiet and restricted existence governed by duty, routine and the expectations placed upon her. After a mysterious incident leaves her with no memory of her past, she finds herself forced into a completely different life among the homeless and unemployed of London, experiencing hardship and uncertainty far removed from her previous world. Through Dorothy's journey, the novel explores poverty, social inequality, religion, identity and the struggle to find purpose in a changing society.
