ONE WOMAN'S SEARCH FOR A BRIGHTER FUTURE. BUT WILL SHE FIND PLEASURE OR PAIN?
Faced with a future that holds little promise, Lydia Halley longs to leave home. But it is only after her mother's tragic death that she finally seizes her chance of freedom - a freedom she has yearned for all her life.
Taking up lodgings in the bustling city of Redbury, she meets handsome stranger Guy Anderson and so begins a friendship which blossoms into love.
Until one day a telegram from Italy brings devastating news for Guy and their passionate leave-taking has dramatic consequences for them both.
