About This Book

The narrative centers on a young woman living in a Devonshire grange whose calm household is disturbed when a well-dressed stranger calls with questions about a long-closed country house, prompting curiosity and speculation among relatives and a local solicitor. The plot moves through genteel drawing-room scenes and family interaction as an underlying mystery linked to property and social circumstances gradually emerges, and themes of romance, reputation, and rural social mores are explored in a sentimental, melodramatic register.
