As for books she loves reading and influences, she cites the likes of Dan Brown, Mary Wood, John Lyman, and Linda la Plante or anything to do with ancient Rome or ancient Egypt.

Lindsey Hutchinson’s novel “The Workhouse Children” is set in Bilston in 1901, where Henrietta Selby who is grandmother to Cara Flowers just passed on. The only silver lining is that she has been left with money and a house.

But her grandma has also tasked her with looking for any destitute relatives and taking care of them. This is bizarre for Cara who grew up believing she did not have any other family.

She had been brought up by her grandmother who never spoke of her parents. It does seem that Elizabeth her mother had married someone her family found inappropriate and this had caused her to be estranged.
The family advisor tells her to check the workhouse in Bilston and she is shocked at the conditions there. She soon learns that she has Charlie a thirteen-year-old brother and Daisy a sister that had been sold as a servant.

It does seem the foremen at the working house are running the place as cheaply as possible so that they can use the extra money to improve their own living conditions.

Cara is furious and becomes determined to destroy the workhouse and all that it stands for, but Joseph Purcell the local magistrate does not like her plans.

But even in the toughest lives, there is some sliver of light and it is not long before romance and laughter find the wives in the small close-knit town.

The big question is will their friendships stand the test of time when some of their methods are questioned and most of their good deeds are called into doubt?
