In the tranquil setting of Barsetshire during the later years of World War II, a girls' school evacuated from London brings a newfound vibrancy to the community. Headmistress Miss Sparling, esteemed for her poise and engaging conversations, quickly earns the admiration of both her neighbors and students. However, despite her outward success, she senses an absence in her life that the quiet charm of Barsetshire might unexpectedly fulfill.
