Large Print
Olivia Brodie is a devoted parlourmaid serving the Broadbent family at Hawthorn Manor. But everything changes the day Spencer Middleton, the Broadbents' charming and enigmatic grandson, arrives. Their connection is undeniable - but so too are the rigid boundaries of class and propriety. When Spencer departs, promising to return, Olivia dares to dream of a future that defies society's expectations. However, tragedy strikes Olivia's family, devastating her. Compounding her grief is the news that the manor is sold, leaving her homeless and jobless. With her younger brother Lachie to care for, she is forced to seek work in the nearby bleak industrial town. Desperate to keep Lachie out of the perilous coal mines, Olivia finds hope when she secures a position as housekeeper to Stephen Sheridan, a gifted but reclusive pianist haunted by his past. But as Sheridan's secrets begin to surface, Olivia must decide who she can trust.
