Description
At 14, Opal's life is turned upside down when her father is sent to prison. With her dreams of university shattered, Opal must start working at the Fairy Glen sweet factory to support her family. Despite struggling to get along with her colleagues, Opal finds an unlikely ally in Mrs Roberts, the factory's dignified owner.
Opal's life is further complicated when she meets Morgan, Mrs Roberts' handsome son, who seems to be the perfect match. But as the First World War looms on the horizon, Opal's life is about to change in ways she never could have imagined.
