Liverpool 1868.
Shrouded in secrecy Alice Sampson gives birth to a beautiful baby girl.
But the former nurse’s happiness is blighted by the knowledge that as a penniless, unwed mother, her future, which of her child, can only just be one of pity and disgrace.
A knock at the door brings a miracle: she is invited to come back to the Liverpool Royal Infirmary and her beloved ward.
With the help of her friends and the welcome attentions of Reverend Seed, the hospital Chaplain, Alice slowly starts to rebuild her life.
But her hopes are shattered when her baby’s father unexpectedly turns up to
claim the child he knew nothing at all about.
All of a sudden Alice is at risk of losing her baby, her position and her whole future .
