Cambridgeshire, November 1945. Young Betty Cantrel is just 14-years-old when she reluctantly leaves her troubled family home to take up a position as companion to Frances Crawley, the ailing daughter of Eben and Mary Crawley. As she settles in and begins her new life at the grand and imposing The Willows, she becomes drawn to Nathan Crawley, the handsome, yet mysterious nephew, and Eben's ward, about whom malicious whispers linger - whispers of a tragedy that claimed the Crawley's' young son Edward, years before. As her friendship grows with Frances, Betty accompanies her to London, where she glimpses another world - a world full of art, music, and freedom, and she begins to dream of a different kind of life. But her growing loyalty to both Mary and Frances comes at a cost when tragedy forces her to choose where her true allegiance lies.
