Daniel has lived his whole life with his mother, adoptive father, and his stepbrothers and sister in a small farm in Yorkshire. He has always been aware that he looks different from his blonde siblings, with his dark hair and brown eyes, and struggles to fit in. Growing up, he relies heavily on his childhood friends from the neighboring estate?Beatrice and Charles Hart?the two children of the area?s most eminent and prosperous landowners. They want to help him to find out where he really comes from, and so begins an endless journey. But instead of discovering his roots, Daniel realizes his deep, but hopeless and unattainable, love for Beatrice. Looming over all of them is a secret they could never have imagined. A secret that when they arrive home could bring disaster, love, or fortune. Or all three?
