Recreando las cartas desaparecidas de Jane Austen, Cassandra Austen vuelve a la vida y lo hace para contar su historia, tan cautivadora como desconocida. Inglaterra, 1840. Cassandra Austen ha vivido más de dos décadas tras la muerte de su querida hermana Jane. Ha pasado el tiempo visitando a amigos y parientes y trabajando en silencio, determinada a mantener la reputación de su hermana.
