Some sacrifices must never be revealed. . . In 1914, despite the threat of war in Europe, Pearl Gibson' s future is bright. She has secured a desirable position as a lady' s maid for Lady Ottoline Campbell. Her new role sees her transported from a life of drudgery to the Campbell' s vast Scottish estate. Pearl is quickly drawn into a whirlwind of intrigue, glamour and scandal, as she realises her job requires her to become her lady' s confidante as well as her maid. In the confusing world of the upper classes it is Ottoline' s cousin, Ralph, who Pearl comes to rely on, trust - and love. But when violence erupts in Europe, Pearl and Ottoline' s world is irrevocably changed.
