The Master & the Governess

The headstrong Amelia urges Lucy to follow her lead and run naked into the woods ... two wood nymphs scampering through damp grass in the sunset. But when their little adventure is over and they flee back to Weighbridge Hall, it is to find the back door locked. They find another way in but are caught by Amelia's father, Sir Richard Weighbridge, and, given his daughter's wilful nature, he employs a governess for her. Despite Amelia's protests, Miss Cambridge is tasked with turning her into a lady and is also charged with disciplining the young woman. However, it takes one particular incident, where Caroline feels her master's anger herself, before she understands that she needs to be stricter on her young charge...
