But just as she begins to find her feet, the secrets of her past are revealed. She is swiftly dismissed but not before she becomes the target of a lascivious groom. And even after she leaves, she is pursued by Hungerton himself, an evil old man who wishes to send her back to the gutters. She returns home to Hedderby and the family who have befriended her. They have their own problems after an arson attack has destroyed their pub and music hall. Gwynna finds herself attracted to a talented carpenter, who was also once employed by Hungerton. His former employer will stop at nothing, however, to bring him back to the estate. Will money buy revenge and destroy two lives, or will the young lovers find a way to achieve their dreams? |
