Sarah Matthews has been raised in an orphanage, the only home she has ever known, in the slums of London. She is suddenly removed from poverty to live as a wealthy widow's ward in the prestigious Mayfair district. Sarah does not know the reasons for it all. The widow, Dorothy Blake, has reasons she is not willing to reveal. The secret Mrs. Blake harbors threatens to break her heart and make both of them outcasts in the social circles when a visitor to the mansion unknowingly stumbles upon the truth. Will the mystery of Sarah's birth remain a mystery forever? Or will it come out and ruin her chance of receiving the attention of a handsome new curate who has captured her heart to the utmost?
