Liverpool Matchgirl

Liverpool, 1901. The Tempest family is barely able to put food on the table and when 13-year-old Lizzie finds herself parentless, she knows that she must find work to keep herself off the streets. In a stroke of luck, she gets a job in the match factory, and foreman George Rutherford takes her under his wing. But the years ahead will be far from trouble-free. And when Lizzie gives her heart, how can she be sure she has chosen a better man than her own father?
