Description
Bess Hardemon's arrival at Priors Heath school in 1849 sets her on a path that will have far-reaching consequences for herself and those around her. A century later, Sarah Beckett faces a similar struggle to break free from the constraints of her life.
The lives of these two women, separated by time but bound together by their choices, are a powerful exploration of the complexities of duty, love, and personal freedom. As Bess and Sarah navigate the challenges of their respective eras, they must confront the difficult decisions that will shape their futures.
