Young Master Peter de Vivian becomes so taken with the new housemaid, Gemma Penhallow, that he forgoes convention to be with her, but the older generation still has its ways of keeping them apart
An interesting book, set in Cornwall 1910, just before class walls fall with the war. It really felt like the author was alive at the time period he set the story, which he wasn't, so very impressive. I should probably look for other books by this author.
