When wealthy bachelor George Marchant marries the exotic Camilla Vane while away in Rome, his friends and family are astonished. Camilla’s motives are her rising debts and a largely forgotten small son. But, to her horror, the otherwise accommodating George insists on one that they live at the Marchant family estate back in England. From the moment Camilla arrives, life at the estate will never be the same again. Chaos is within the first year one of the family has attempted suicide, one marriage has ended, and one son is dead. Camilla is oblivious to the destruction she leaves in her wake, plotting her return to the continent – but there is one person willing to do whatever it takes to stop her.
