In suburban Victorian London, Marion Franks, the lonely daughter of uncaring parents, knows little of life and love. When love, in the form of actor Hallam Beck, does suddenly possess her, she is overwhelmed by an obsessive desire which leads her into an alien world far removed from her upper middle-class upbringing. Hallam becomes the nemesis of the Franks family, and his self-torment results in his mind finally failing and his life being suspended in the past.

In 1820s rural Derbyshire, an abandoned new-born is discovered under a hawthorn bush by Carey, a witch living unexplainedly on church ground in the village of Brockhill. She names the foundling Valentine and raises him as a pagan. Valentines impoverished childhood is followed by an unexpected academic education from the local vicar on whose land the pair live. The young boys adolescent love for Susan, a fellow village orphan, and his later passion for Francis Levett-Bayne, the well-heeled but dissolute estate owner, lead to an awakening of conflicting yet conflated sexual desires. Mary Reynolds, in her second novel, dramatically and sensitively portrays Valentines development from rural urchin to young city gentleman, and tells the story of how his struggle to leave behind his Satanic roots has ultimately tragic consequences.
