About This Book

A lively young girl is sent from a rural upbringing to live in a grand household, where her uninhibited habits clash with the formal family and their circle. Her impulsive pranks and defiance provoke scandal, create misunderstandings, and bring her into conflict with cousins and household members; episodes range from school troubles and social embarrassments to a fall in the snow, a mysterious late-night visitor, and a dangerous weapon, all of which prompt disputes over loyalty, manners, and responsibility. Confronted by consequences, relationships shift and characters—friends, guardians, and the girl herself—must reckon with correction, compassion, and the prospect of moral growth.
