Synopsis:
This book explores the ways people find relief from their troubles and the sacrifices they make to aid others. As the story unfolds, the reader is introduced to Lady Maud, a woman who leaves London and her comfortable life to join her brother in Scotland. The residents of the village where they live are in the grip of a typhoid epidemic and Lord Thurso is doing all he can to help. Lady Maud, despite the risks involved, makes herself useful wherever she can be, while wrestling with her own personal anxieties. The author delves into the strengths and weaknesses of these two characters, and in doing so provides an illuminating insight into the nature of resilience, hope and selflessness. Ultimately, this book is about the human spirit, how it responds to setbacks and how it finds ways to show its humanity, even in the face of adversity.
