One of Catherine Cookson's better historical romances. Set at the turn of the last century. Well drawn characters and romance without the tawdry or the mawkish. Addresses the changing attitudes toward the class system in Great Britain as WWI looms on the horizon. A working man and a "ladyship" lumbered with a failing estate explore the possibilities of bucking the system.
