Description
Liverpool 1915. Martha Rossi lives in a tenement with her husband and their five children. Despite working all the hours she can, the family struggles to make ends meet. When her fourteen-year-old son enlists to fight for his country, Martha is horrified by the government's lack of action against young boys joining the army. As the telegrams from France begin to arrive, breaking mothers' hearts across the country, Martha finds herself driven by grief and a desire for justice. With courage and support from her friends and family, she sets out on a quest that will take her right to the doors of No. 10 Downing Street. Her journey will be tough, but it will be the most important undertaking of her life. Martha's story is a powerful exploration of one woman's determination in the face of adversity, and the impact it has on those around her.
