So Disdained is set in Italy during the 1930s. The story follows the character of Stephen Fletcher, an English engineer who is sent to Italy to work on a new project. Fletcher becomes involved in a dangerous game of espionage, as he is recruited by a British intelligence agent to gather information about an Italian weapons manufacturer. Along the way, Fletcher falls in love with a beautiful Italian woman named Marta, who becomes instrumental in his mission. However, as Fletcher becomes increasingly entangled in his role as a spy, he begins to question the morality of his actions and the motives of those around him. The novel explores themes of loyalty, betrayal, love, and the political tensions of pre-World War II Europe. Ultimately, Fletcher must decide where his loyalties lie and what he is willing to risk for the sake of his beliefs and those he cares about.

The necessity of leaving the only home she had ever known was daunting so soon after the death of her beloved mother, but the new life she was about to embark on was to prove both exciting and challenging to Patience Kilpatrick. Daughter of a father who had abandoned his family to fight and die for Bonnie Prince Charlie at the Battle of Culloden, and granddaughter of the earl who had given his life in the earlier Stuart cause, she had lived a life far beneath her station and was happy to become governess to the young son of Milady Costain. Her growing confidence in herself and the twists and turns her life takes as she becomes embroiled in the fortunes of her contemporaries in the glittering world of London's aristocracy leads her into a future she could only have dreamed of.
