AS A NEW CENTURY DAWNS, WILL HER LOT BE HARDSHIP OR HAPPINESS?

The lights of London seem bright to Kitty Miller, but their sparkle soon fades when she finds herself alone and destitute, at the mercy of those that inhabit the fog-bound streets and alleyways of the East End. When the feisty young prostitute, Tibs Tyler, takes her under her wing, the two girls, one dark, one fair, set themselves up as a music hall act.

As they desperately try to break free from Tibs's violent pimp, and to avoid the educated and wealthy yet sinister Dr Tressing, they also hope to make a new life for themselves as the new century breaks.
