Description: When Molly Mason's father dies in a pit accident, she is left penniless and alone. She finds cheap lodgings and work in a local factory.

As the prospect of war grows ever closer, Molly finds herself fighting a more personal battle, trying to find anyone willing to overlook her scandalous past.
