Description
Follow the story of three young women during the Newsie strike of 1889. When they cross paths, what events transpire thereafter are forever changed. With clashing personalities such as their's, all hell could break loose. Genevieve Conlon (aka Amazon) runs the Newsies of Brooklyn with her twin brother Spot. She has everything she needs: a brother who loves her, the freedom to do what she pleases and as close to a family as an orphan can get. Genevieve doesn't want anything to change. One person walks into her life and changes everything. Sofia Kelly is running from her past. Under the alias of Lioness, she and her twin Jack lead the Manhattan newsies like parents do their children. Sofia longs to leave the city for Santa Fe, New Mexico. She saves up every spare penny for the journey, not letting anything distract her until someone throws her completely off track. Charity Jacobs wants freedom. The possibility of making her own decisions entrances her. She manages to place herself beside her older brother David as he sells newspapers on the city streets. Her situation becomes more complicated than she could have ever dreamed after a single person becomes close to her heart.
