Edith Banfield, once young and foolish, had accepted the unpleasant and boring life she'd found herself in. Long before the observant William Turnbridge arrived in her small village, at least. With an absent husband, a lack of allies and a family so far in the past, she never expected things to change after the choices she'd made, despite how much she wished they would. When Edith's husband is reunited with an old friend, the very fabric of the life she knows is about to rip open. Once stuck in a routine, now her days are filled with uncertainty, propelled by a hope she had long forgotten. And the consequences she will face are far greater than anything she might expect.

This is the magnificent year of 1889. A year that brings nothing but light to the people of London and to every single noble across Great Britain. This is the year of great achievements and powerful names. But it's also the year of loss and sorrow. Because in the midst of all the light, the darkness simply waits around the corner for someone to turn everything off. And when that person comes, there will be no hope left to cling to. It can be a story of two people, or maybe four people. Perhaps it's a story of a whole town or an entire country. But it's a story of people nonetheless. /// [Might contain mature content.] [Read at your own risk]
