A baronet brings home a young bride, an astrologer’s warning and a malediction fall upon the family, and ten years later old secrets and a long-nursed grudge begin to unravel the household. Fleming fills the story with lonely huts on the heath, dying bequests, a mysterious Mr. Parmalee and rival beauties, in the full manner of the sensation novel.
