Jane Lane leads a privileged life inside the walls of her family's home. At 25 years old, her parents are keen to see her settled, but Jane dreams of a union that goes beyond the handsome dowry her father desires. Her world is shattered when Royalists, fighting to restore the crown to King Charles II, arrive at their door.
