Julia Beddoes is born in Cornwall. Her father is the manager of the Trevelgue mines, and her grandfather the local Doctor.
Julia is introduced to the wealthy Trevelgue family in Newquay after her father dies, where she was schooled with the family's only daughter Edwina, who becomes the bane of her life with her cruel ways.
When Julia was sixteen, tragedy strikes again with the death of her grandfather. The letters informing Julia are cruelly withheld by Edwina. Intent on confronting Edwina and informing her mother, Julia returns to the manor to find Edwina has died.
With Edwina's death Julia thinks that her problems with the Trevelgues is finally over until Ewina's funeral where she is wrongly accused as murdering Edwina.
Although thoughts of the hangman's noose hang over her, Mrs Trevelgue has a proposition for Julia, to travel to London to her estranged mother Lady Mary McKenzie and fraudulently pose as her granddaughter.
Surprisingly, Lady Mary accepts her and offers to give her a season and a position for Jane as her ladies' maid. Julia, uncomfortable with the lies and deception, finally admits the truth. Regardless, Lady Mary wants Julia to debut, as she has already gained a reputation as an accomplished pianist.
Julia meets and falls in love with the Duke of Rochester and thinks that she has finally found happiness. But the Trevelgue's have not finished with her yet. What do the dreaded Trevelgues have in store for Julia now?
