Savannah

A coming-of-age story of a beautiful, precocious, headstrong young woman whose life is marked by tragedy. Savannah, born in 1870, grows up in a loving family at Longridge Hall, surrounded by wealth and privilege. One summer, at the age of seventeen, her reckless behaviour and determination to win the wager set by her school friends leads from an ill-judged liaison with a servant to the man of her dreams, a young Irishman whose attentions hide an ulterior motive. Savannah's journey to self-discovery involves heartbreak, pain and loss.
