Thea Tennant, the eldest daughter of a wealthy industrialist and a beautiful aristocrat, is unwilling to follow the traditional path prescribed to her by birth; she wants to devote herself to real work. Her beautiful, frivolous sister, Dulcie, however, thinks only of pleasure, not least of which are carnal. With the outbreak of war, the Tennant family's life changes dramatically: their son goes to the front, and Thea begins working. And for their maid, Primmy, as always happens in times of hardship, new opportunities open up, which she is determined to seize. Against the backdrop of the brutality of World War I, which will test all the novel's characters—people from rural areas and the British capital—vivid, vibrant characters emerge.
