Jessica Brennan is just nineteen years old when her world falls apart. Losing her father at sea was devastating enough, but the death of her mother is almost too much to bear. The grieving has barely begun when Jess learns that the family business is in ruins, but there are further blows to come. Jess’s brother Patrick is determined to gamble with what little they have left...
Suddenly a young woman who has known only comfort and security finds herself alone and friendless. But Jess is a fighter and in her darkest hour she finds the strength she needs to start again. From buying and selling dyed feathers as hat trimmings, Jess gradually establishes a business that can support not only herself and Tilly, a little girl she rescues from the streets, but also Patrick. Tragedy, however, is just around the corner, leaving Jess more determined than ever to regain the happiness and security she once had...
