Scarlet Woman — Julia Fitzgerald

VENGEANCE

Meggie was born in the slums of Victorian London -- born to poverty, drunkenness, and the brutal degradations of child prostitution.

PASSION

But Meggie was also resilient, determined and courageous, and as she watched her mother die in squalor and despair, and fought against the vicious lust of her stepfather, she promised herself that she would triumph. No matter how long it took or how hard the task, that she would seek, find and take revenge on the man who had betrayed her and her mother into destitution.
