Having left his well-established family in Belfast, Sampson Moore became a cabinet-maker and importer in Liverpool. In 1806, he and Margaret Robinson were ordered to pay certain sums of money towards the parochial care of a ‘male bastard child’.
This novel tells the story of what might have happened when that child grew up, left the workhouse, and discovered his true identity. It encompasses not only aspects of life in nineteenth-century Liverpool, but also the contemporary attempts to overthrow English rule and establish an independent republic in Ireland.
