Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the ways people find relief from their troubles and the sacrifices they make to aid others. As the story unfolds, the reader is introduced to Lady Maud, a woman who leaves London and her comfortable life to join her brother in Scotland. The residents of the village where they live are in the grip of a typhoid epidemic and Lord Thurso is doing all he can to help.
