Cara, poor and beautiful, dreams of evading the menacing shadow of the workhouse, of becoming both financially independent and free of her protector, the ruthless Captain Christie.

And both women, from very different backgrounds, find the political idealist and man of fortune Daniel Carey, irresistible . . .
