About this listen

Dinah Shaw has learned not to ask questions about what her mother, Ethel, does for a living. She spends her days trying to keep her younger brother, Ollie, entertained and safe in the tiny Whitechapel tenement where they live. There’s never enough food, and their ominous landlord threatens them continually with eviction. Ethel is gone for days on end - and Dinah’s life is one of hardship and loneliness.

The only bright spot in her world is Benjamin Morris, the boy who lives in the tenement next door. Somehow, Benjamin never seems to lose hope. But when eviction tears the Morris family away, Dinah’s world is catapulted into darkness. A long, terrible journey lies ahead, one of endless tribulation in Dinah’s constant quest to give Ollie a better future. And in order to do that, she’ll have to make a terrible choice. A choice that would mean Benjamin is lost to her forever....
