Produktbeschreibung

An exclusive short story from this much-loved author

The truth could change the lives of all those around her.

Ellen has worked as a servant girl since she was twelve - her mother had always taught her that she must earn her own keep until she finds someone to marry.

After a year of back-breaking work, a chance encounter leads her to a new position as kitchen maid at Hart Holme Manor - the grandest estate around for miles.

There, against the wishes of the household, she befriends the owners' son, Christopher. If the true nature of their closeness were ever revealed it could not only jeopardise both Christopher and Ellen's positions, but carry consequences that could affect the rest of their lives.
