The Choir

In a world that wants to silence them, one group of women dares to sing—brought vividly to life by narrator Caroline Hewitt.

In the hard streets of 1890s Briarstown, a Yorkshire mill town shaped by poverty and loss, Eliza Kingwell is struggling to survive while raising five daughters. When tragedy destroys her chance to escape, she turns to an unlikely hope: a local singing competition. With nothing left to lose, Eliza gathers a fierce group of working-class women into a choir, chasing a cash prize that could change their lives forever.

At the same time, Eliza’s former best friend Ruth Henton—a celebrated London singer—has been undone by scandal and is searching for redemption. Fate reunites them when Ruth is appointed a judge in the very competition Eliza must win.

As voices rise, secrets surface, and old wounds are laid bare, The Choir becomes a stirring story of music, sisterhood, and women reclaiming power in a world determined to silence them.

Perfect for fans of Jennifer Chiaverini, Tracy Chevalier, and Pip Williams.
