Brazen and blossoming Effie helps, sometimes with great reluctance, at her mother Elspeth’s Halecot Farm.
Not having grown up as a farm girl, she is more interested in Elspeth’s handsome Belgian labourer Georges than she is in sheep shearing. Against the backdrop of a Devonshire spring time, Effie’s affectionately competitive companionship with soon blooms.
