The Girl From Pit Lane is such a rollercoaster of events as two sisters try to stick together through the death of their Mother when left in their drunk Step Fathers care.
As they soon realise they are going to have to provide for themselves the pace of the story quickens as one of the Sisters becomes pregnant with the child of the married pit owner.
But secrets such as this can not be kept for long and the author really gets across how frightened and emotional the girls are as the life they once knew is turned upside down.
I really enjoyed this book and following the story to reach the outcome of the girls fate.
A brilliant saga book I would recommend.
My thanks go to the author, publisher and Netgalley in providing this arc in return for a honest review.

Review: This is a beautiful tale of a families love keeping them strong through some very tough times. This is a first I have read from this author and I enjoyed it. It follows two sisters who become orphans and then have to stick together to overcome the ways of the world at that time. 

A great read.

Not read anything from this author before but I really enjoyed this book, and I hope she writes another soon. It follows the lives of two sisters Mary-Anne and Eliza Wild. After losing their father their mother remarried to give her girls a roof over their heads and some security. Unfortunately she found out too late her new husband was a drunk, and it was down to her to keep his job safe and a roof over their heads. On returning home to find their mother dead and their stepdad unwilling to provide for them the girls find themselves in some tough times.
