  • "In the sweltering summer of 1911, suggragette Connie Callaway is introduced to Will Maitland, cricketer and rising star of the county. Despite parting on uncertain terms, they are destined to meet again, their lives inextricably entangled. Combining national drama and private tragedy, this is a story of love, sacrifice, suffrage and county cricket, projected against a vivid backdrop of England in an extraordinary age of turmoil and violence."
  • "London. In the sweltering hot summer of 1911, the streets ring to the cheers for a new king's coronation, and to the cries of suffragist women marching for the vote. One of them is twenty-one-year-old Connie Callaway, daughter of a middle-class family. Forced to abandon her dream of a career, Connie is faced with another hard choice - to maintain lawful protest against an intransigent government or to join the glass-breaking militants in 'the greatest cause the world has ever known'. Also watching is Will Maitland, privileged, dashing and rising star of county cricket. Their lives are destined to become inextricably entangled in the years to come."
