When lovely Laura Chapman wakes up to find herself destitute in a London workhouse with all her belongings stolen, she cannot imagine how she will ever get over the shame.

Until the day Jack Plant appears to threaten her new-found security by revealing the secret she has tried so hard to keep. Less
