The story unfolds during the year 1529, following the life of Lady Rosamond Corbet, a young girl living in a convent, who navigates her identity and aspirations amid religious duties and family expectations. With her family's ties to nobility and her mother's expectations, the narrative hints at themes of duty, family, and possibly the supernatural, as Rosamond contemplates her future and the role she is destined to fill. At the start of the novel, Lady Rosamond, reflecting on her life, introduces herself as a daughter of a knight and recounts her experiences at the convent where she has spent much of her upbringing. She reveals her struggles between personal desires and familial obligations, particularly regarding her impending life as a nun, a decision she grapples with deeply. Themes of religious duty, personal sacrifice, and friendship emerge as she interacts with her fellow nuns, particularly highlighting the differing personalities and beliefs that shape their community life. The initial chapters set the stage for a rich exploration of both the mundane and the profound aspects of life in the 16th century.
