Dare to Dream

Georgina Corrigan is worried. The first women sent to her Percy Place home by the BOBs - an organisation which supports women escaping difficult home lives - are ready to step out into the world again. Some have found opportunities in Dublin, others in New York. Will those travelling to America find employment with the Harvey Company? Thousands try every year to become Harvey Girls - young women who serve in restaurants and hotels on the railway line. Will they be successful when so many fail? Meanwhile, at home complications multiply. Georgina is surprised when a strange young man appears, claiming the BOBs have sent him. Then Flora Kilroy appears on Georgina's doorstep, claiming to be a relative. As the people who serve in the house struggle to meet the demands of each new arrival, Georgina wonders if she will ever know peace again.
