Opal Plumstead might be plain, but she has always been fiercely intelligent. Yet her scholarship and dreams of university are snatched away when her father is sent to prison, and fourteen-year-old Opal must start work at the Fairy Glen sweet factory to support her family. Opal struggles to get along with the other workers, who think her snobby and stuck-up. But Opal idolises Mrs Roberts, the factory's beautiful, dignified owner, who introduces Opal to the legendary Mrs Pankhurst and her fellow Suffragettes. And when Opal meets Morgan - Mrs Roberts' handsome son, and the heir to Fairy Glen - she believes she has found her soulmate. But the First World War is about to begin, and will change Opal's life for ever. This is the brilliantly gripping new story from the bestselling, award-winning Jacqueline Wilson.

Dear Father,
Oh, it's hateful to think of you in your prison cell, all alone! We miss you terribly. Please don't blame yourself for what happened.
You musn't worry about us. I promise to take care of Mother and Cassie. I have left school, and now work at the Fairy Glen sweet factory. It was so hard to give up my scholarship, and some of the girls here are horrid – but I quickly showed them that although I'm little, I'm also fiery! And Mrs Roberts, the factory owner is wonderful. She is a suffragette – and I'm going to be one too.
Your loving daughter,
Opal
