Lucy Pocket grows up in poverty with her mother Eva, burdened by the stigma of illegitimacy. A wealthy grandfather removes her from that life and promises security, but after his death the inheritance intended for Lucy is taken from her.
Forced into a Whitechapel lodging house, Lucy becomes responsible not only for herself but for three vulnerable children. She must uncover what happened to her inheritance while creating a home in circumstances designed to keep the poor dependent and powerless.
