Two sisters. Two choices. One crucial moment in history.1913. Clara and Nancy work with imprisoned suffragettes who are on hunger strike. Seeing the struggles of these women is going to force them to decide whether fighting for what you believe in is worth giving up your freedom.A novel exploring the pain it can take to live your truth, told by a masterful storyteller.

Jon Walter is inspired by the power of ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances. A former photojournalist, he took pictures of the people we rarely get to see, and as a writer he listens out for the quieter voices of those that don't get heard. Here, inspired by the suffragette movement, he explores how it was the everyday decisions of women over their own lives that made its success inevitable.Jon's previous books, Close to the Wind and My Name's Not Friday, were also published by DFB, and have been shortlisted for numerous awards.
