A young woman in Edwardian England is expected to behave with propriety, especially if she is the daughter of a vicar. But Harriet Loxley's family is not as staid as you might imagine and when Harriet leaves Nottingham for London to pursue her studies it is with her family's support. What she doesn't tell them is that she also intends to seek out the Women's Social and Political Union and the notorious Christabel Pankhurst.
Harriet's fight for the vote plays out against the background of her family's ups and downs in the Nottingham lace industry and her own struggle to realize her potential in a society that sets limits on women.
