Description
This is not a history book, but history turned into a gripping novel. All historical facts are true. Jane finds herself whisked back into 1842 after seeing a ghostly figure running away from the Ash Hall Nursing Home, where she worked.
In 1842 she finds herself working for Job Meigh, the entrapreneur pottery master, who built Ash Hall. He was a violent Victorian,but a great philanthropist to the outside world. He, and industrialist pottery and mine owners, had grown rich from the labours of their workers, who were driven to starvation when their pay was repeatedly cut. The Chartists wanted to get their People's Charter approved by Parliament to offer the people, among other requests, representation in Parliament and the vote. This was rejected, resulting in the violent Pottery Riots.
Jane has to discover why she has been sent back into the past and gets involved with the riots - which will lead her into life-threatening danger. In any case, she has to find out who the the ghostly figure was.
