Lucy Graham, radiantly beautiful, born to poverty, and Sir Michael Audley, aging aristocratic widower and fabulously wealthy, are married soon after first glance.

Life is peaceful at old Audley Court until the arrival of Robert Audley Sir Michaels nephew and his friend George Talboys, who is home again after making his fortune in Australia.

When George mysteriously disappears, Robert takes it upon himself to find him again. Developing a detectives eye, following disturbing clue after clue, Robert becomes convinced his alluring Aunt Lucy isnt as innocent, or possibly as sane, as she seems.
