In the early twentieth century, Addy Whitlyn works as a low‑ly servant in a London family. One evening, a mysterious elevator in her employer’s study appears to be more than a modern convenience. Inside it, Addy is transported back to 1120, to a great English castle. There she discovers that the lord’s heirs have mistaken her identity, treating her as the bride the lord had pledged.
Addy must navigate the social hierarchies, customs, and challenges of medieval life while trying to find a way back to her own time. The story explores themes of identity, social class, and the unexpected links between past and present.
