Publisher's Summary

When Molly Holden’s husband, Thomas, is convicted of being a Luddite on the word of a secret informer, he is sentenced to be transported to Australia. Left with their baby daughter, Molly must find work to survive. But the man who informed on Thomas is a former suitor of Molly’s, and Isaac believes that with Thomas out of the way she will return to him....

Yet Molly is determined to join her husband and decides to raise the sum to pay for passage, first turning to the coal pits and then teaching herself how to weave quilts, all the while trying to stay one step ahead of Isaac’s nefarious interferences.

Well written

The beginning of the book was quite slow living as I expect that was the intention.
It was interesting to learn about the history of those times including the forced transportation of anyone found guilt of crimes against the country.
I cannot wait to read the second book in the trilogy
