On Christmas Eve in Whitechapel, an abandoned baby is discovered on a doorstep in Angel Lane. The child’s arrival brings together people already struggling to survive winter in one of London’s poorest districts and raises questions about the mother who left the infant behind.
As the search for the baby’s origins continues, acts of charity expose old grievances and new dangers. Those who take responsibility for the child must protect it from poverty and exploitation while deciding whether family is determined by blood, duty or the willingness to offer a home.
