The Workhouse Girl

Circumstances force eight-year-old Sarah and her widowed mother to enter the notorious St Giles and St George’s Workhouse.

When her mother dies in childbirth, the independent-minded Sarah falls foul of the workhouse master, Trigg and his cruel wife.

Sarah’s ordeal seems to be over when a sugar mill owner takes her into his home.

Sarah Scarse may be young but life in the notorious St Giles and St George’s workhouse has forced her to grow up fast.

And after her mother’s untimely death, Sarah’s fighting spirit becomes her only defence against the workhouse master, Trigg, and his cruel wife.

Sarah’s fate appears to change, however, when a sugar mill owner takes her into his home.

But just as Sarah starts working towards a brighter future, dangerous figures from the past threaten to catch up with her.

Can she draw on her determined resolve to finally confront her problems and free herself from the shackles of the workhouse, once and for all?
