This is more than a historical romance, for it illustrates the cronyism of mid-19th Century Britain, its class divisions and snobbery, where high position was not necessarily correlated with ability, or even common sense, and in which woman were beginning to make their mark, but not necessarily through common cause and co-operation, but in the kind of rivalry and conflict that characterised the nursing recruits to the Crimean War, one of whom was Daisy Ashton. Daisy knows little about her origins or how she came to live under the guardianship of the Marquess of Chantry, until an overheard ...
