It is winter, 1901. The ancient facade of Cresswell Manor surveys a vast and rich estate - but the land has fallen into decay. Mortimer Cresswell is an old man now, and at his deathbed his family waits, patiently, to scrap over his fortune. Only Hannah, Mortimer's daughter, can see that the family has become consumed by private ambition, jealousy and greed.

When Stanislas von Ehrlich, a self-made man of fortune, moves into the neighbourhood, the natural order of things changes, sparking a massive feud. And then von Ehrlich's headstrong, spoilt and beautiful daughter Esmeralda is drawn to a member of the Cresswell household, with the most far-reaching consequences.

Before long, both families are set on a collision course so powerful it will completely alter their world.

Review:
Sharp-eyed, shrewd and entertaining (GOOD BOOK GUIDE)
From the Author:
I wanted to write this series of books because that period of history has always interested me. There were so many changes in the lives of the people living then and with the First World War society changed never to be the same again.
I concentrated on those who did not go to fight, the women, the children and the men who were left behind.
I want to write the series up to the start of the Second World War.
I have set the book on a West Country estate using it as a microcosm of the country as a whole.
