      Spirited and courageous, she is determined to fight for 'the greatest cause the world has ever known'. Will Maitland, the rising star of county cricket, is a man of traditional opinions. Buffeted and spun by choice and chance, Connie and Will struggle against the aftershocks of war and the changes it wreaks.

      Summer of 1911. English society is on the brink of change. The streets of London ring with cheers for a new king''s coronation and the cries of increasingly violent suffragette protests.

      Connie Callaway, fired up by the possibilities of independence, wants more than the conventional comforts of marriage. Spirited and courageous, she is determined to fight for ''the greatest cause the world has ever known''.

      Will Maitland, the rising star of county cricket, is a man of traditional opinions. He is both intrigued and appalled by Connie''s outspokenness and her quest for self-fulfilment.

      Their lives become inextricably entangled just as the outbreak of war drives them further apart. Buffeted and spun by choice and chance, Connie and Will struggle against the aftershocks of war and the changes it wreaks. This is a deeply affecting story of love against all the odds.
