Eighteen-month-old Bethany is cruelly snatched from her wealthy parents, Matthew and Faith Blythe’s, home in Jaipur, India. Even though they offer the requisite ransom money the heartless kidnappers never return the child to those who care for her the most.
Through a cruel twist of fate Bethany ends up on the doorstep of the Clerkenwell Working Orphanage, London and in an instant, she becomes Stella Mallory leaving all links to her previous existence behind.
Life in the orphanage is hard and Stella must keep her wits about her if she is to survive the daily grind of endless chores, but the friends she makes there keep her buoyant. When her life takes a turn for the worse, Stella knows she must act if she is to be free of the never-ending drudgery and hard slog.
Stella manages to escape and soon throws in her lot with Victorian London’s criminal underclass.
It’s among these pickpockets and sneak thieves that Stella finds the support and strength she needs to reveal the high-powered conflict in which she’s a pawn, secretly pursued and protected in turn by powerful enemies and allies.
With the help of her criminal colleagues, and one young man with a strangely similar story, can Stella turn the tables on those who would see her dead to discover and regain her birth right?
