When the truth is buried, one daughter must risk everything to uncover it.
Edie Bramhall is no stranger to hardship. By day, she stitches fine gloves in a grim Victorian factory to keep her fragile family afloat. By night, she cares for her ailing younger brother while her mother drowns in grief and gin. But when a mysterious letter arrives—addressed to her father, long presumed dead—Edie’s world begins to unravel.
The letter hints at a conspiracy deep within Thorlin & Co., the very factory where Edie toils. Her father, once dismissed as a drunk who fell onto the railway tracks, may have been murdered for uncovering dangerous truths about military contracts and fraud. Now Edie holds the key to secrets others would kill to keep hidden.
Jonas Felgate, a government agent undercover as a factory clerk, has come to investigate these very suspicions. But his mission grows complicated when he encounters Edie: fierce, intelligent, and unknowingly entangled in the web he’s trying to expose. As the factory’s dark dealings begin to surface, Jonas and Edie find their fates—and hearts—dangerously intertwined.
In a world where power preys on the powerless and silence is survival, Edie must decide how far she’s willing to go for justice. With enemies watching and allies uncertain, the glovemaker’s daughter is no longer just a witness—she’s a threat.
A gripping tale of courage, sacrifice, and love found in the unlikeliest of places, The Glovemaker’s Daughter is perfect for readers of Dilly Court, AnneMarie Brear, and historical fiction with heart.
