On the threshold of their new life together, Margaret gave Henry a black eye and went straight to bed where she more or less remained for the rest of her life. Two young couples become regular, if uneasy, houseguests over the years, listening and speculating until finally, piecing together the rumours and the mystery, they find themselves tangled in the web of Henry's life.
