Charlotte is a busy social worker following WWI. She wants to make others' lives better but what exactly does that mean and how can she do it?
Once a governess for the wealthy Ashton family, she has stayed in touch with the young Lord Cumberland and his youngest sister. It means she is sometime rubbing elbows with the wealthy. She wants to despise them because why should they have so much when others have nothing but she doesn't.
We see Charlotte wrangle with her own conscience as she tries to make things right in a country where so much is wrong.
This is not a heavy or depressing book but it does cause one to think about the changes that have been made in the 100 years since this book took place.

Pleasant read. Not as exciting as the first of Jennifer Robson's books, but a fun read all the same. Good development of the main character of Charlotte.
