Description:
In 1830s northern England, Riah Millican, a widow with three children, becomes housekeeper to Percival Miller, a withdrawn former teacher. Miller gifts Riah a black velvet gown and educates her children. However, when Riah learns the reason behind his generosity, she resolves to leave. Miller maintains control over her even after he dies, leaving her his house with the condition that she never marry. Riah's daughter, Biddy, matures into a laundress in a wealthy household, where her education isolates her but also attracts the attention of the master's son. With Miller’s inheritance, Biddy may find happiness.
