Description
Lily's life has been shaped by abandonment and loneliness. As a child, she is left to fend for herself in a Birmingham slum. Years later, at 18, she applies for a nanny position with the family of Captain Fairford, a soldier stationed in India. This decision sets her on a path that will take her across two continents. As Lily becomes embroiled in the lives of the Fairford family and their young son Cosmo, she finds herself drawn into a world of love, loss, and heartbreak. Her own feelings for Sam Ironside, the family's motor mechanic, threaten to upend everything. When Cosmo is sent away to school, Lily takes on another role with Dr. McBride and his wife in a beautiful Himalayan hill station. The story that unfolds spans decades, from Edwardian England to the glamour of Brooklands Race Track in the 1920s. It is a tale of enduring friendships and two hearts that cannot be kept apart.
