About this listen

It's 1884, and 14-year-old Sunday Small has been in the Nuneaton workhouse since she was abandoned at birth. The regime is cruel, and if it were not for her dear little friend Daisy, Sunday's life would barely be worth living. And now she's attracted the unwelcome attention of the seedy workhouse master, who will stop at nothing to get her alone. It's time for Sunday to strike out alone in the world, but the brutal world of the workhouse will not let her go without a fight....

I usually like this author, but this book should come with a warning. She drones on and on about physical and sexual abuse as if it’s just no big deal. I’m not putting up with any more. I’ve got the idea. The author should have moved on to the next stage much faster.
