The Cotton Town Girls

Sophia Seddon and Grace Thompson are poles apart - one a member of the notorious Seddons of Plover Street, the other the spoilt only child of the local vicar. But after Grace rescues Sophia following a run-in with her judgemental father, their friendship quickly blossoms.

Fourteen years later, at the turn of the twentieth century, Sophia and Grace's childhood friendship is revived when they find themselves fighting a common cause: women's rights. Joined by rebel suffragette Vinnie, and Ada, who is still searching for her purpose, they begin their fight for votes and freedom. The ties of friendship prove stronger than any, even in the face of danger.
