Charlotte Briggs and her siblings enjoy a happy life above her father's cutler shop.
Tragedy strikes when her father's loans are called, and they throw him into debtor's prison. How fortunate that his able-bodied apprentice is there to look after the shop and the three Briggs children. But the intentions of the apprentice prove far from honourable.
After a gruesome discovery, they falsely accuse her father of a horrific crime. Found guilty, they sentence him to languish in Newgate prison.
Charlotte, with everything against her, is determined to free her father and clear his tainted reputation. Support in her quest appears in the most unexpected of places.
Will a new posting as governess for a wealthy family lead to happiness, or will Charlotte find herself at the mercy of a cruel fate? Time is running out, but hope is ever with her ...
The Cutler's Daughter and all Catharine Dobbs' novellas are wholesome Victorian Romances.
