Cara Dunning first came to the wild and remote Beckwith Farm in the Yorkshire Dales as a young land girl during the Second World War. When Cara fell in love with Edward Hendry, whose family owned Beckwith, it was not what her family had intended. Edward was fifteen years older than Cara, a pacifist, and a widower with two children, one of whom bitterly resented her new stepmother. Cara was determined to make the marriage work, in spite of the hard life on the farm, in spite of Edward's reserved personality and the shadow of Nancy, his former wife. Her greatest friend on the farm was Edward's mother. Edith Hendry, a loyal and wise Dales-woman, was to see the young bride through many tragedies and vicissitudes. And as Cara's life began to change, so Cara changed too, finding a complete and utter happiness where she had never expected to...

When Cara was nine years old, her mother died. At the funeral, a minister introduced himself as her father. With him are his wife, a ten year old daughter, and two younger boys, three and four years old. Not only has Cara never met them, but she knew nothing about them until that moment. In taking her to live with them, no one was prepared for the effect this decision was to have on everyone. The faith she learned from her mother becomes the overriding force that directs the action.
