A novel from Jane Austen's lost yearsIn 1807, Britain is at peace. Napoleon is in East Prussia, and there are good relations with the United States.Nora Woodruff, the nubile daughter of a prosperous Hampshire farmer, visits London with her family. Bewildered by its size, noise, crowds and sense of barely concealed violence, Nora finds her perceptions and values challenged. With her customary confidence in retreat, she re-evaluates her vision of the world, and her prospects for her own future. Her sense of stability is further tested when she meets an American family. Katherine Hayes, and her brother, Jonathan, offer friendship, but is there more to their intentions? Their house on Portland Place offers Nora the entrance to a new life, but is it one she wishes to embrace?
