Description

Vera has uncovered things she never wanted to know. Her father was a monster. How could Vera have been so blind to what was right before her eyes? After the death of her kind and loving Papa, Vera's home is claimed by ne'er do well Uncle Merritt, who drives the household with cruelty and deprivation. Working for her keep, the once privileged Vera is driven to skin and bone and dreads the harsh beatings that Merritt regularly delivers. Ralph, Papa's loyal and brave stableboy, cannot bear to see Vera shrinking daily under the hand of Merritt. In an attempt to protect her, he challenges Merritt and now, tossed to streets, must survive however he can. With the loss of Ralph, Vera's soul aches, made worse as she watches her father's elderly servants treated with cruel indignity. In a desperate bid to protect them from Uncle Merritt, his rage is fuelled, and Vera is delivered an ultimatum, causing her to flee from her home. With no-where to go, Vera too, finds herself on the streets. As Starvation threatens it is only Ralph and her new friend Maggie that keep her alive. But when Maggie unexpectedly reveals the truth about Vera's Papa, Vera is plunged to new despair. Will the truth destroy her? Can she keep secrets for the rest of her life? Will she ever be able to make things right. And will she agree to Ralph's plan, even though it means she may lose him forever?
