Acerca de esta escucha
Doxie Shaw suffers bitterly in an orphanage in Victorian London. As she struggles to survive, she tries to comfort the younger children, but her kindness quickly costs her the only home she's ever known.
Thrown into the streets at the tender age of nine, Doxie's gentle heart tries to keep on loving and hoping in a world that seems bent on destroying her. Faced by one trial after another, Doxie becomes acquainted with the depth of cruelty in her city. Struggling to hold onto hope, Doxie's only evidence she's ever been loved is the silver spoon that was tucked into her rags when she was left at the orphanage as an infant. But what does it mean? Where did she and the silver spoon come from? Will she ever know who her family really is?
And can she find solace in the sweetness of Owen Green's gap-toothed grin? Will he be able to help her find the answers her tender heart seeks?

The streets of Whitechapel are a savage place to grow up, especially during the terrible winter of 1895. Even before she was brought into the world, the odds were stacked against Effie Wilson. Born to two irresponsible, alcoholic parents, Effie is the eldest of five children - none of whom really stand a chance. Matters are made even worse when Effie’s parents disappear one day, never to return. Her only hope could rest in Willie Green, a sweet boy with bright hazel eyes who comes and goes from Effie’s life. If only she knew when he might appear again...
