The village of Malford lives in the shadow of Delancey Castle, and a rumour about the castle’s inheritance sets its people talking. Among a black-and-white goat, mural paintings in an old church, an old priest and the scandalous Molly Biddulph, a group of friends uncovers an old-time tragedy and argues over whether folly can be the wiser course.
