After the death of her beloved father, Maggie and her family are thrown into a life of destitution.

But when her mother is confronted with her 'unladylike' behaviour, Maggie is thrown into a life of unthinkable cruelty and abuse. With no one to care for her and only the hope of escape, all Maggie can do is survive.
