Character Bio
Olivia is the youngest daughter of the Brackley family, an aristocratic family feeling the pinch in post war England.
As sweet as she is sheltered, Olivia’s life has been one of an enduring charade, the charade of keeping up appearances in the face of adversity.
As with many in the English upper class, hers is a family emptied of true wealth by the depression and two World Wars.
What privilege they still enjoy is a function solely of their family title. But a title alone cannot sustain a grand house and four children, so when James Bligh surprised the family by asking for Olivia’s hand in marriage, it seemed the answer to at least one of their prayers.
