East London, 1888: a place where thieves, enforcers, prostitutes, and everyday people dream of a better life, while Jack the Ripper wanders the streets at night. There, beside the waters of the Thames, a clever and brave girl dares to dream of a life away from the rotten docks, filthy alleyways, and the sorrow of the poor neighborhood.
Despite the endless hours she works in a tea packaging factory, Fiona Finnegan knows that her life is better than many others. Moreover, she has Joe. Fiona and Joe have been in love since childhood and dream that one day they will open their own shop.
However, East London is a dangerous place for a girl alone – and the Ripper is not the only danger casting his heavy shadow over it. Fiona must escape from there at all costs, start a new life, and forget about Joe. But how will she manage to do that when Joe is the only man she has ever loved?
The first book of the legendary trilogy "Rosie" by Jennifer Donnelly will captivate you.
