Prior to beginning a new year at Mrs. Goddard's School for Girls, Miss Harriet Smith spends the summer months with the Martin family at Abbey-Mill Farm -- a house of Israelites, or is it Hebrews? Would it be impolitic to call them Jews? It matters not, for Harriet finds contentment there. And, if her heart betrays her with stronger feelings for Mr. Martin than she ought to have, they are hers alone.

Alone... a common enough phrase for the natural daughter of nobody knows whom. But when Miss Emma Woodhouse requires a new friend to guide and mold, Harriet suddenly finds herself in the midst of one imbroglio after another. Forbidden assignations, sentimental blunders and questions abound!

Be it through gossip or vengeance -- or small-minded people, "the instruments of darkness tell us truths." Will Harriet remain encumbered to her mysterious past, or will astonishing discoveries provide the fulfillment she long desired?
