Tilly True loses her position as a housemaid and is forced to find work across a succession of precarious London settings, including the law courts, an East End parsonage and a house of ill repute. Each move leaves her vulnerable to employers and men who assume that poverty removes her right to choose.
Her connection with Barnaby Palgrave offers affection but also draws her into conflicts of class, reputation and obligation. Tilly must rely on her intelligence and resilience to escape exploitation and decide whether love can provide partnership rather than another form of dependence.
