London, February 1914. Eighteen-year-old Grace Campbell arrives in London from Carlisle, her family's hopes pinned on her becoming a secretary. The only job she can find is as a housemaid in the mansion that is Number 35, Park Lane. Upstairs, a jilted and humiliated Beatrice Masters is determined not to return to New York before she has salvaged her pride. She secretly joins Emmeline Pankhurst's militant suffragettes and is steadily drawn into the violence rocking the city. But Grace and Beatrice's existences are not as parallel as they seem. Little do they realize that their hidden lives and emotions will soon be revolving around the same man - or that the coming war will change the boundaries of both their worlds for ever.

Work Description
It is London, 1914 and war is looming. The suffragettes are on the move and two young women at 35 Park Lane dream of breaking free. While, below stairs, housemaid Grace Campbell is struggling. She has told her family she is a secretary, and has been asked to send more money home than she earns, and this is when she gets herself into trouble. Meanwhile Miss Beatrice, daughter of the house, has had enough of the social season. When she gets the call to join Mrs Pankhurst's suffragettes, Bea finds herself playing a dangerous game that will throw her in the path of a man her mother wouldn't let through the front door. Then war comes and it is not just their secrets - now on a collision course - that is going to change their lives permanently.
