Courage conquers all...
Summer 1832
Tildy seems to have found happiness and contentment at long last.
She is blissfully in love with Daniel Lambert, a well-respected needle master.
Her forthcoming marriage to Daniel is all but a legal formality to seal their love.
At home with her son Davy, Tildy works hard filing needles and for once in her life, her future seems bright.
But a dreaded enemy has just reached England's shores.
A vicious cholera epidemic is advancing on the land, spreading misery and death to all.
The cause of the virus remains a mystery, but when a drunken sailor drowns in a local drinking pond, the townsfolk of Redditch soon fall prey to the murderous disease.
Ravaging the town like a murderous army, the disease spares none in its path.
Tildy now faces the hardest challenge of her life and using her skills as a nurse, she sets out to help the local townspeople.
Although ridiculed by doctors, her insistence that clean drinking water is essential may yet save her and the rest of the town.
But will she be able to protect the people she loves the most?
Or will her happy ending be taken away before it has even begun?
