Il destino di Griet, figlia di uno dei decoratori di piastrelle più rinomati in città, cambia il giorno in cui alla sua porta compaiono due sconosciuti: un uomo dal viso spigoloso, occhi grigi come il mare ed espressione ferma, e una donna, riccioli biondi e sguardo sfuggente, che sembra portata dal vento. Nella casa dei Vermeer, tra l'artista e la serva, l'uomo potente e la giovane donna che possiede solo la sua incantevole innocenza, nasce ben presto un'intesa fatta di sguardi, sospiri, frasi non dette.

With no money of her own, Jane could not hope for a powerful marriage, or perhaps even marriage at all. But as she grows into a lovely young woman, she still receives flattering attention from the young men flocking to serve the handsome new king, Henry VIII, who has recently married Catherine of Aragon. Then a dashing French prisoner of war, cousin to the king of France, is brought to London, and Jane finds she can't help giving her heart to a man she can never marry.
