Summer 1900. East London is still a place of poverty, bandits and whores neighbor the dreamers, and bright hopes collide with grim reality. And it is by no means a place for a woman from the upper classes, but India is determined and stubborn. She belongs to a new generation, and the medical profession she has been given is also relatively new to women.
On the streets of East London, India meets and then saves the life of Sid Malone, one of the most notorious ringleaders of the London underworld. Tough, dangerous and yet extraordinarily charming, Malone is the exact opposite of India's fiancé, a rising star in the House of Commons. Though Sid epitomizes everything India reviles and rejects, she is inexplicably drawn to this man. She falls under his spell. She does not give rest to his mysterious past, where Malone does not allow anyone ...
In "The Winter Rose" vividly recreated the events of the early troubled XX century. Here and brothels of the underworld, and hospitals for the poor, and living rooms and clubs aristocrats. Between these polar points lies the realm of shadows, where the strict laws of time dissolve in the secret passions.
