Hunger drove 13-year-old Sarah Simm to steal a valuable gold pocket watch. Kindness prompted Jacob Silver to offer her a job rather than see her jailed for the theft. Those two acts changed both their lives forever.
'Sarah's Story' is a companion book to 'Tools of the Trade', the first book in the Silver and Simm Victorian Mysteries series, re-telling the story of their meeting and their first case from Sarah's point of view.
