Description

In the crumbling grandeur of a Suffolk castle, seventeen-year-old Cassandra Mortmain chronicles a year of dramatic upheaval within her eccentric, impoverished family. Through her sharp and witty journal entries, she captures the chaotic beauty of their lives, the faded glory of their home, and the arrival of wealthy American heirs who threaten to upend their world. As love, ambition, and desperation intertwine, Cassandra navigates the complexities of her changing circumstances, ultimately finding herself on the cusp of adulthood and a profound, unexpected romance.
