    In 1914, Britain faces a new kind of war. For Edward and Beatrice Hunter, their children, servants and neighbours, life will never be the same again. For David, the eldest, war means a chance to do something noble; but enlisting will break his mother's heart. His sister Diana, nineteen and beautiful, longs for marriage. She has her heart set on Charles Wroughton, son of Earl Wroughton, but Charles will never be allowed to marry a banker's daughter. Below stairs, Cook and Ada, the head housemaid, grow more terrified of German invasion with every newspaper atrocity story. Ethel, under housemaid, can't help herself when it comes to men and now soldiers add to the temptation; yet there's more to this flighty girl than meets the eye. The once-tranquil village of Northcote reels under an influx of khaki volunteers, wounded soldiers and Belgian refugees. The war is becoming more dangerous and everyone must find a way to adapt to this rapidly changing world

    The Land of My Dreams
  4. 3

    Třetí volné pokračování epické rodinné ságy sleduje další osudy rodiny Hunterových. Píše se rok 1916 a je čím dál jasnější, že konec války, která měla původně trvat jen pár měsíců, je v nedohlednu. V knize je mistrně vylíčeno prostředí staré Anglie, v níž ještě přežívá viktoriánský duch: bohaté domy, ve kterých se o pohodlí panstva stará početné služebnictvo, jak to známe z populárního seriálu Panství Downton. Ale postupně se život začíná pod vlivem války měnit, a i když to u konzervativců budí pohoršení, změny nelze zastavit.
