The story is set in the rural countryside of Wales and revolves around the life of a young woman named Gwenda Morgan. Gwenda is the daughter of a wealthy farmer who owns a large estate in the Welsh countryside. However, despite her privileged upbringing, Gwenda is a kind and gentle soul who is loved by all who know her.As the story progresses, Gwenda falls in love with a handsome young man named Huw, who is a tenant farmer on her father's estate. However, their love is not without its challenges, as Gwenda's father disapproves of their relationship and tries to keep them apart.Despite these obstacles, Gwenda and Huw are determined to be together and eventually marry. However, their happiness is short-lived when tragedy strikes and Huw is killed in a mining accident. Devastated by her loss, Gwenda must find the strength to carry on and continue to live her life.Throughout the novel, Raine paints a vivid picture of the Welsh countryside, with its rugged landscapes and close-knit communities.
