She's chomping at the bit to get out from under the control of her smarmy guardian, the frighteningly obsessive Mr. Ffalkes. But Ffalkes has other plans for Caroline. She manages to escape him, only to find herself in the fascinating company of Frederic North Nightingale, Lord Chilton. As tragedy and mystery thicken the air, Caroline is drawn more and more to Lord Chilton, a man who claims he's a lonely beggar, his soul suited for solitude and for walking his hounds on the moors.
