As the city thrums with Blitz bombers, lonely A.R.P warden Ruby Thacker is drawn into the unfamiliar world of the India Forum. There, at the dishevelled townhouse in Bloomsbury, she meets Kitty, an ambitious barrister doing all she can to free her beloved India from British rule. But Ruby has secret motives for joining the Forum, and when the mysterious Satyajit appears with radical ideas about fighting for freedom, she finds herself torn between head and heart.

Eunice does the best that she can—uneducated, and with a daughter and ailing mother both depending solely on her, her life is a series of limitations. She moves through the rooms of the penthouse suite in silent servitude, and though Mabel is ashamed of this invisibility act they've both perfected, the era of slavery is still fresh in the country's consciousness, and Eunice thinks it best not to dwell too hard on such things. But when tragedy strikes, and a little boy dies, Eunice must decide if she can face the indifference and injustices of the ruling class she has spent so long orbiting.
