More Description
Aggie, Thalia, and Euphie Hartington were reared by an eccentric aunt, who despises men and keeps 24 cats. When Aunt Elvira is found dead, they discover she's left her fortune to the felines. The sisters are on their own.
Aggie becomes a governess in their old neighborhood, where she encounters the very Johnny Dudley who used to taunt her as "Uglea" years ago, now grown up and very attractive. Thalia wins a teaching position at a seminary, and is plagued by a disruptive pupil, Lady Agnes Crewe. Euphie goes to London as companion to a countess. Their shared love of music brings them together, as Euphie plays for her.
And then...a more recent will is discovered. Elvira Hartington left half her money to her nieces, and half is enough to change everything.
