Born in Glasgow, Jessica Stirling is the author of many heartwarming novels, most of which have Scottish backgrounds. She has enjoyed a highly successful career since The Spoiled Earth was published in 1974.
The latest novel by this masterful storyteller promises to delight fans with its wonderfully rendered characters, stimulating plot twists, and laudable historical ambience. Stirling's tale follows Cassie Armitage into an unfortunate marriage to the evil, deceitful, and abusive Reverend Robert Montague. Cassie's servant, Nancy Winfield, is the workhouse girl of the book's title. Nancy shares the story's center stage and is as engaging and likable as her wealthy counterpart. But it is Nancy's station in life to carry the weight of an illegitimate child on her very capable and resourceful shoulders. She also happens to be unaware that she herself is living a lie--a fact that greatly complicates her life in significant ways unbeknownst to her. A thoroughly entertaining and satisfying read. Alice Joyce
