1888. East London is a city within a city. A place of shadows and light; a place where thieves and whores are neighbors to dreamers; where children play on the cobblestones by day and a murderer sneaks around at night; where bright hopes collide with grim reality. Here, to the whispering waves of the Thames, Fiona Finnegan, a tea factory worker, dreams of one day opening her own store with Joe Bristow, the son of the market trader she has known and loved since childhood. Driven by faith in each other, Fiona and Joe wage a daily battle with life, saving for everything and enduring hardship; all in the name of realizing their dream.
But Fiona's familiar life is shattered when the actions of a dark and cruel man take away almost everything and everyone she loved and who served as her support. Fearing for her life, Fiona is forced to flee London for New York. There, through perseverance and an indomitable spirit, she rises from the owner of a modest West Side store to the owner of a thriving tea company. But the ghosts of the past haunt her, and to deal with them, Fiona returns to London. A deadly battle with her past becomes the key to her future.
