Publisher's Synopsis
SOMEWHERE A BIRD IS SINGING
Sally is an orphan living in Plymouth's Barbican, where a vile trade flourishes in young girls, duped and shipped off to the brothels of Europe. She finds employment delivering wares for a local shop, meeting fisherman Ethan and Eva, a Salvation Army captain, who has dedicated her life to rescuing the endangered girls. When Ethan, his father and brothers are reported missing at sea on a fishing ship, Sally volunteers to help Eva's crusade - with near disastrous results.
