A female narrator looks back on her childhood in a coming-of-age
novel set before the First World War. Ruan is an intelligent and
imaginative child, who gradually comes to understand the nuances of
the adult world around her, as she moves from the Manse, under the
strict rule of her father, a non-conformist minister, to Cobbetts,
her mother's ancestral home, under the tutelage of her Uncle
Alaric, and back to the guardianship of Rosie Day at Bolton House
high up on the moor above the town where she was born. Her young
life is shaped by a series of tragedies, but also the warmth of
enduring friendships, particularly with David, her dearest friend
who shares her love of the wild expanse and colours of the moor.
