What is The Ever Open Door : a Novel about?

What would you do if you lost everything? Money, reputation, status? It is a question Rachel Gilmore may soon have to face. The year is 1888 and Englands economy has been hard hit. Liverpools slums are overrun with those hoping to immigrate to Canadas brighter shores. Sadly, many never leave, falling instead into a cycle of abject poverty. It is a harsh reality that Rachel, the daughter of a prominent ship owner, knows only from a safe distance. Forced to volunteer in a Childrens Sheltering Home by her do-gooder stepmother, she is a sympathetic, but detached observer of the poor and their plight; that is, until her father is gravely injured in a suspicious dockside accident. In a race to keep his company out of the hands of greedy creditors, Rachel becomes ensnared in a sinister plot that leads her deep into the seedier sides of Liverpool and threatens her life. Faced with peril at every turn, the young Rachel must will she fight, flee or succumb.
