HESTER VERNEY is a superb portrait of an extraordinary woman; and of a world where nature holds sway. From the age of fifteen, Hester Verney has been forced to make her own way in the world. A child of the harsh, bleak fenlands of late nineteenth-century England, Hester is a beautiful and independent girl whose modest contentment is shattered by the inarticulate devotion of her employers son, Chad Langtoft. When she rejects his suit, Chads love turns to bitter resentment. Hester is forced to seek employment elsewhere, and meets two men who will further influence her lifes course.
