Adrian Savage is charming, half-French and thoroughly modern, and he is in love with a woman who keeps him at arm’s length. Meanwhile, in a provincial English household, the plain and intense Joanna Smyrthwaite pours her hopeless passion for him into a locked book, and a funeral sets new wine working in old bottles.
