description: Set in the Lake District in the years just before the outbreak of the First World War.
  
  Lucy Dean is a young woman of eighteen years with no money, no job and four young brothers and sisters to support. James Buchanan is a young man of thirty-four years with a great fortune, who thinks that Lucy Dean is the most remarkable girl he has ever met. What could be more natural than their marriage? For James is hopelessly in love, but Lucy is too young, too serious, and too determined to sacrifice happiness to duty -- and has not yet learned what love means. Then the Great War comes, and Lucy's heart awakens with shattering results for both of them.
