American Marina Weston, just turned 20, is left orphaned and penniless in London, England. Saddled with her father's debt and tainted by the stigma of his suicide, Marina has only three options open to her in 1866: hire out for service; become a prostitute, or starve. With the help of caring friends, Marina is offered a unique opportunity and begins to build a productive life. But fate intervenes when she runs afoul of some very powerful and unscrupulous men. Marina finds herself at their mercy, thrust unknowingly into a diabolical plot that will put her sanity, and her very life, at risk. She must find the strength to overcome the evil conspiracy, but when one's very identity has been undermined, what is left to hold onto? Will Marina emerge with her sanity-and her identity-intact, or will she end as a pawn in someone else's game?
