Now the Buccaneers are no longer the invaders &#8211; England is their home. In fact they&#8217;re practically running the place. Nan is the Duchess of Tintagel, the most influential woman in the country. Conchita is Lady Brightlingsea, heroine to a wave of young American heiresses. And Jinny is on every front-page, wanted for the kidnap of her unborn child. All of the girls have been forced to grow up and now have to fight to be heard, as they wrestle with romance, lust, jealousy, births and deaths&#8230; themes consuming all women of any age, no matter what year it is. Last time we got a taste of England.
