The Midwife | Tricia Cresswell
1838 A woman is found alone, naked and near death, on the Northumberland moors. She has no memory of who she is or how she got there, though she can still remember how to dress a wound and how to help a woman in labour. With the odds against her, a penniless single woman, she starts to make a life as a midwife – but can she ever be truly safe.
In London, Dr Borthwick lives a solitary life working as an accoucheur, dealing with mothers and babies in the elegant homes of high society, and volunteering in the slums of the Devil’s Acre alongside a young widow, Eleanor Johnson. His professional reputation is spotless, but he is harbouring a dark secret from his past.

By the time Kate is well enough to go home, she’s agreed to take on the case, but when Kate and her sidekick Tristan start to look at the events of that fateful night, they discover that Jean has a dark past.
