Three sisters - Anne, Marigold and Sally - daughters of the lately-deceased Vicar of St. Chytas, leave their Cornish village and move to London to try and find work. Their hope of making enough money to support themselves is harder than they thought, but soon, through their resourcefulness and good luck, each sister finds a position, each beset with difficult challenges. As the drudgery of work continues the sisters also have their own dreams. Anne, the eldest, dreams of marrying a Duke. Marigold, whose red-gold curls danced about her pretty face, longed for a life of wealth and glamour and practical Sally, with her misty loveliness, dreamed of returning to home to the Cornish coast she so dearly loved. Will the sisters succeed in obtaining their heart’s desire or will misunderstandings and the twists of fate keep them from love. All is revealed in this beautifully told story of heartbreak and happiness, love and dreams...
