Carrie Preston is used to hard work - oldest of ten, with an incompetent mother and a drunken father, she struggles daily to find food for her siblings. But nothing could have prepared her for the day fate deals her family the cruelest of hands, rendering them more desperate than ever. So when Eli Beckett offers Carrie a job at the Dragon pub, she grabs the opportunity with both hands.
