Ethelberta, raised in modest beginnings, finds herself thrust into a new world as a governess and, at just 18, marries into wealth. Tragically, her husband passes away just two weeks after their wedding, followed closely by the death of her father-in-law, Lord Petherwin. Now 21, Ethelberta resides with her mother-in-law, Lady Petherwin, who has indulged her with foreign travels and privileges, yet has also kept her estranged from her own family. As Ethelberta navigates life as a celebrated poetess and storyteller, she grapples with the challenge of supporting her loved ones while hiding the truth about her fathers humble occupation as a butler. Amidst the attention of four persistent suitors, she remains hesitant to part with her coveted hand. This tale unfolds in a captivating serial format.
