‘I’m going to live in that house, Dad. One day I’ll be
mistress of Thornsby Manor . . .’ It is 1910 in the Lincolnshire
Wolds. Young Rosie Waterhouse lives with her father, Sam, well
known as the local poacher, in a cottage on the Thornsby estate.
The land is owned by William Ramsey, a harsh and heartless man who
is determined his only son, Byron, should marry well and produce an
heir. Rosie is quick to learn the tricks of her father’s trade
and it’s when she’s poaching fish from the estate’s stream
that she meets Byron. They continue to meet in secret over the
coming months and, as their friendship blossoms, they recognize
that, despite their vastly different backgrounds, they are destined
to be together. When William learns of their bond, he stops at
nothing to ensure that they never meet again. As the years pass and
the threat of war becomes a reality, Sam is involved in a tragic
incident that will affect both his and Rosie’s lives more than
they could ever have imagined. Life will never be the same in
Thornsby, but will Rosie find the happiness she yearns for?
