- Sweethearts since childhood, Ellie Hogan and her husband, John, are content on their farm in Ireland?until John, a soldier for the Irish Republican Army, receives an injury that leaves him unable to work.

Once there, Ellie is introduced to a world of opulence and sophistication, tempted by the allure of grand parties and fine clothes, money and mansions . . . and by the attentions of a charming suitor who can give her everything.
