The attitudes towards women have changed drastically between 1832 and 2024. Consequently, the lives of Anne Lister and Eva Mills are quite different. Eva is a time-traveller who uses her special powers to run an antique business in Beverley, a small market town in East Yorkshire.
A chance meeting on the lane leading to Anne's home at Shibden Hall throws Eva away from her plans to obtain artefacts for her 'emporium'. The brutality and division in wealth of the 1830s around Halifax means that when a small boy loses a leg as a result of a man's reckless driving there is no recompense. The culprit is rich, and a man well known in the area as a magistrate. How can justice prevail when he denies any wrong doing?
