A historical feminist piece which explores the difficulties of family expectation, social as well as gender inequality and the complexity of identity. Combining what was socially acceptable in the period with what was controversial or socially unacceptable, it highlights a bond between brother and sister which is later discovered to be more as family secrets are revealed. It questions the societal norms and expectations of the English culture and highlights the struggle of individual identity during the Victorian Era and additionally analyses the consequences of an individual suppressing their own sexual orientation.

From the moment I was born, I lived with an abusive father who blamed me for my mother's death, and even I couldn't disagree with him. Here are a few questions I am constantly asked: 'Do I do well in school?' No, are you kidding me? The only subject I'm good at is Visual Arts. 'Do I have a kind and caring family?' No, I don't think I do. 'Do I have anyone who cares about me?' No, I'm a loner and socially awkward. 'Do I have privileges?' No, if you haven't understood the message yet, I live in an abusive household. Now, you might ask if there are any questions the answer is yes. I'll give you some. 'Do I want to die?' Yes, I sometimes do. 'Do I feel alone in this world?' Yes, always. 'Do I get a beating every day?' Yes. *** This is Amara Williams, a 13 year-old with average grades and no friends. What happens when her only guardian, her dad, is dead? What happens when she finds out that she has five older brothers who are not only strict and demanding, but also protective assholes?
