Lucy Trahern, sometime governess to the three Bostram children, has suddenly lost her position. As the story opens, she is wandering London without baggage or money in the rain, looking for a night’s shelter. Beyond hope, she finds two old ladies who offer her protection, a job, and a mystery that is about to set her life on its ear.
