"London, 1850. Iris Sheffield has plenty of people to worry about in her life: Hope, the ailing younger sister for whom Iris feels responsible. Winston, Iris's fianc?, who is consumed with his work. And James, the handsome but arrogant artist painting Iris?s portrait, with whom she is forced to spend countless, awkward hours. But when Iris finds the diary and photograph of a mysterious young woman, she can?t stop wondering who the woman is and what has become of her. The more questions Iris asks, the more she suspects someone does not want her to discover the answers.
