A workhouse-born girl of twenty two is handed nine pauper girls nobody in the parish would take into service, to get the number off the books before an audit, and a lace mistress seventeen years dead had bricked something into the chapel wall behind the poor box. One complete story, start to finish.
A full-length story of an English estate - a careless gift, a young woman who actually looked at what she was handed, and everything that was hidden in a house nobody troubled to search. One complete story, start to finish.
