When hard times strike, family loyalties will be tested…

It is the time come to be known as the hungry forties; the town is crippled by strikes, hunger and destitution are rife, but so is courage.

Courage in the form of Jane Marsden who wants more from life than her situation promises and courage too in the form of Richard Jones a foreigner to Manchester come to make his way and knowing that the only way he is going to succeed is by hard manual work.
