ANNA - the proud, determined Russian nightclub pianist. She was humiliated and rejected by the English aristocracy, and the man she loved. Anna must make a terrible sacrifice so that her daughter can have the life she herself was denied.
NICOLE - the talented young American who seems destined only to fulfil other people's ambitions. She plays a celebrated, but reluctant, role in London's high society. Yet Nicole must keep her family secrets from the one she loves most.
LYNMARA - the ancestral home of Lord Manstone and his dashing son, David. They form the link between past and present, mother and daughter.
A compelling tale of passion and ambition, war and death, and the legacy of a mother's love.
