About this listen

1911, Bath, England – Passionate suffrage campaigner Esther Stanbury has been banished from her home for her views. So ever since, she’s worked as a window dresser in Pennington's Department Store, where she’s proud to have a job and to earn her own money.

She has hopes and dreams of helping secure women the vote, and not just by seeking to convince her friends at Pennington’s, Elizabeth, Cornelia and Amelia to join her cause.

Then she meets Lawrence Culford, the owner of the nearby prestigious Phoenix Hotel, and they are both drawn by the possibility of a love neither had thought could exist.

But with the Coronation of King-Emperor George V looming, the atmosphere in Bath is building to fever pitch; as is the suffragists'’determination to secure the vote. Will Esther’s rebellious nature lead her to ruin her chance of love forever?
