Primed for service, she is now ready to take up a position as a governess.

Prudence has been given a temporary position by Mr Julius Rookham to teach - or tame - his two young wards, who have so far had an unconventional upbringing. But when Prudence meets Julius she finds his changeable moods disconcerting. And it will take more than a little patience to turn the two unruly girls into refined young women, ready to enter society. With her future hanging in the balance, can Prudence make herself invaluable enough to secure a permanent position? And can Nell and Kitty advise her on how to handle the mysterious Mr Rookham...?
