In London, 1912, the Oakley family leads an ordinary life until a sudden tragedy shatters their dreams. Andrew Oakley, a city clerk, and his wife Alice have hopes for their sons to become skilled apprentices while their daughter Mabel aspires to be a secretary rather than enter domestic service. However, after a life-altering event, Mabel finds herself forced to take a position as an in-between maid. As she navigates this unwelcome role, unexpected support begins to emerge, helping her pursue her ambitions and redefine her future.
