520 _a1910. Fourteen-year-old Rosie Waterhouse lives with her father Sam, in a cottage on the Thornsby estate on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds. The estate is owned by William Ramsey, a man determined that his only son Byron should marry well and produce an heir. Sam is well known as the local poacher, and Rosie is quick to learn the tricks of his nefarious trade. Rosie has seen Byron from a distance all her life, but encounters him properly for the first time when he finds her poaching fish from his father's stream. To her surprise, he helps her, and they continue to meet. But then William decides to retire his aging gamekeeper Amos, who had turned a blind eye to Sam's poaching. And when news of his son's activities reaches him, he deems Rosie unsuitable company, and forbids Byron from seeing her again...
