Lydia Fostyn is being coerced into marriage to an odious older man when Ralph Latimer, Earl of Blackwater, returns from exile - and stirs up painful memories. Ralph is responsible for the tragedy which has brought about her family's hard times and decides he must do the honourable thing by her. But, as drawn to Lydia as he is, how closely should he get involved with a woman who appears to be aiding and abetting smugglers on his land near the Essex marshes...?
