(3) YA Victorian London offers few opportunities for impoverished young women, even hardworking ones like Grace and her mentally disabled sister, Lily. Battered by one misfortune after another, Grace eventually finds work in a funeral home run by a grasping and unscrupulous family, and she nearly falls victim to one of their frauds. Remarkable period detail recalls Dickens, while the intrigue-stuffed plot beckons modern readers. Bib.
