Synopsis

Isabella comes from a noble family and attends an elite all-girls academy meant to prepare her for a life of high society. But she hates it there—she sees the whole thing as just a fancy prison keeping her from the real world. When her family gets worried about her grades and attitude, they hire Violet Evergarden to work as her tutor, disguising her as a handmaiden so Isabella won't suspect anything. Isabella's not warm to Violet at first. Violet seems impossibly perfect at everything, which makes Isabella assume she's just another privileged person who never had to struggle for anything. But as they spend more time together, Isabella realizes Violet's got her own complicated past. The walls come down, and Isabella opens up about what's really been eating at her—she's lost touch with her younger sister Taylor Bartlett and desperately wants to find her again. Violet knows firsthand how powerful the right words can be. So she proposes something simple: why doesn't Isabella write a letter to Taylor? The question is whether Violet can actually help Isabella say what needs to be said.
