Whitby, 1845. Amber Ainsley works as a laundry maid for the wealthy Greenwoods. But when she falls pregnant with Barnaby Greenwood's illegitimate child, he orders her to get rid of it. Amber refuses and flees to Scarborough, where she will stay with her Uncle Jeremiah until her baby is born. Upon discovering this, Barnaby offers to find a loving adoptive family and save the child from being taken to the poorhouse. Broken-hearted, but wanting the best for her daughter, Amber hands her over. Meanwhile, news comes that Louisa Greenwood has given birth to twins. But she dislikes motherhood, refusing to tend to the babies, and Barnaby persuades Amber to return to work for him, this time as a nanny. His son is sickly, but his daughter is thriving. And when Amber notices a familiar birthmark on the infant girl's leg, her world is turned upside-down...
