This is the story of one glorious gothic mansion, Garonlea, and two rather different women who would be Queen. Lady Charlotte French-McGrath has successfully ruled over her family with an iron will, until the arrival of Cynthia—beautiful, young, talented, selfish, and engaged to her son Desmond.

They know the source of their power—a secret handed down through generations.
