As Nell watches her sister sink into bitter poverty, she begins to wonder if she could ever allow herself to fall in love, when her own mother and sister are suffering so much at the hands of men they once worshipped. As the world around her grows more uncertain and war more likely by the day, love seems to Nell an increasingly dangerous game.
