About This Book

A young orphaned girl is sent from her distant home to live with an aunt and the household of a country estate. She copes with strangers' curiosity, awkward welcomes, and the routines of domestic service while forming friendships and rivalries. Episodes of illness, unsettling dreams, and sudden alarms puncture everyday life as quieter discoveries and revelations uncover family tensions and secrets in the West Wing and at Chandos. Through these trials she develops resilience and loyalties, and the story closes with her finding a settled place within the household.
