Sobre IBD

When, at the urging of her dying mother, eighteen-year-old farm worker Mary Evans sails for England in 1886 she has no idea that she has inherited her grandmother’s heraldic title of Countess. Unused to the way of the British aristocracy, and much to the consternation of her peers, she adjusts in her own way to deal with the authority, privileges and wealth that have been bestowed upon her.
