Matilda dreams of becoming a 'healer', like Anne, the old woman teaching her the ancient secrets of the plants. But when the local Lord's daughter needs a handmaiden, Matilda is her first choice. Obliged to the Lord's family, Matilda leaves the village to become the companion of Lady Christine. While out picking herbs, Matilda is mistaken for the Lady Christine, and kidnapped by Lord Rufus, to be held as ransom in a land dispute. Will Matilda escape from Lord Rufus' manor? Will she be able to continue her dream to become a healer? And what of Lady Christine, who is now forced to become a villager so that Lord Rufus doesn't realise he has the wrong girl?
