The Orphan Nurse

De: Audrey Barlow

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Her family destroyed by injustice. Her spirit forged in the workhouse flames. Can one orphan heal her deepest wounds and ignite a future built on love?

Haunted by devastating tragedy – her father unjustly hanged, her mother lost to grief, her brother dying in her arms – Mary Bennett finds herself alone in Victorian London clinging fiercely to one dream: becoming a nurse. Yet her path leads only through hardship: first, the brutal workhouse cruelly overseen by John Turner, the very man who destroyed her family; then harsh domestic service; and finally, the gruelling, dangerous toil of a match factory.

Within the workhouse walls, she forms an unbreakable bond with fellow orphan Sam Brown, a connection shattered when they are cruelly torn apart as teenagers. Years later, Mary still carries the weight of her past as she navigates the dangers of London, secretly pursuing her dream against all odds. Driven by the injustices that haunt her and the memory of the boy who shared her struggle, she must find the strength to fight for a better future. But can one woman's resilience truly make a difference, and is the hope for love and justice merely a phantom from a life long gone?
