Here he meets Ned's uncle, dashing David Heron, and they form an immediate attachment which will impact Jane's whole life. Finding themselves orphaned, Jane and her sister Melia are left at the mercy of their domineering Aunt Alice. Struggling to cope with Aunt Alice's exacting wishes Jane decides to strike out on her own and do her bit for King and Country in the Nursing Corp. Here, despite the terrible conditions she finds her true vocation and one true love. But Jane's destiny has many more twists and turns to come. Will she ever find her peace and get her happy-ever-after? And where does her destiny lie and with whom?
