London, 1884. James Falconer works as a barrow boy in a successful market owned by Henry Malvern, but his ambitions extend far beyond the trade followed by his family. Observant and disciplined, he hopes to learn from Malvern and one day create a chain of prestigious stores of his own.
Henry’s capable daughter Alexis is also determined to secure her place in the business, making James both a potential ally and a rival. Their plans unfold across a Britain enriched by imperial commerce but divided by class, and tragedy and betrayal force both young people to decide what they are prepared to sacrifice for independence and success.
