When little Blanche is born in a small village in the West Country - the fifth child of an impoverished labourer - the future appears bleak. Then one fateful day Blanche's mother is requested at the 'big house' to nurse Marianne, the motherless daughter of John Savill. The two girls, so different in their hopes, are brought up together caring for each other as sisters.
As she grows over, Blanche is torn between her roots and her desire for a life of wealth and ease.
Her friendship with Marianne remains the one constant in her life but when she meets Marianne's intended husband, tragic consequences await them all.
