A chance meeting between Faith Rawlings, the daughter of an earl off to visit her grandmother and George Lowe, the son of a servant turns into an adventure when Faith convinces George to join her in first class dressed as her friend Grace. Their whimsical escapade turns tragic when the maiden voyage of the Titanic ends in tragedy. George returns to first class by assuming the guise Faith had fashioned and sees to it she makes it to a lifeboat. He is saved when a gentleman who believes George is a girl who has been overlooked offers up his seat in the last lifeboat. When George learns his father did not survive he is taken in hand by Faith who leads him off on a new adventure, one that proves to be as precarious as it is exciting, for he does so as Grace. Grace is drawn into Faith's world and accepted. This is no easy feat. Not only does Grace need to pass herself off as something she is not, she must overcome the barriers imposed upon her by society.

Preparing for her husband's retirement from his parish, Michele Guinness, author of The Guinness Legend, decided to clear out the attic and in doing so rediscovered a trunk of letters, diaries, journals and notebooks, over one hundred years old, belonging to Grace Guinness, Peter's grandmother.Most famous for her unconventional marriage to renowned speaker and evangelist Henry Grattan Guinness, Grace's journals reveal an extraordinary woman who in many ways was before her time: a rebel against the constraints of her narrow religious upbringing, unconventional in her choice of husband, defiant of a society that frowned on a well-bred single mother going out to work, a businesswoman who ran her own hotel, and an early feminist who believed in birth control.She worked until she was in her seventies, read The Times every day, got through at least one book a week and could comment eruditely on politics, science, philosophy, theology, music and literature... This was a woman who wrote in a frank and sometimes risqué way about her life, love, hopes and fears, and encouraged others to break some of the taboos of their generation.In Grace, Michele Guinness weaves together the revealing contents of Grace's own words with her own to create a unique and inspiring interpretation of this remarkable woman's life and times.
