Summary: Kerstin Kvist didn't quite know what to expect when she took up a job with the Cosway family at their odd house. Lydstep Old Hall, deep in the Essex countryside. The family turned out to be even odder than the house: living at home with the widowed Mrs Cosway were her three unmarried daughters, in thrall to the old lady; but there was also a mysterious fourth daughter, who came and went infrequently, with ill-disguised contempt for the others. Even more puzzling was Mrs Cosway's son, John, a sad, self-absorbed figure in his thirties. Then, just as she was beginning to get some inkling of what was going on in the house, a stranger with a glamorously Bohemian aura moved into the village - and his presence set the Cosway family on a path to self-destruction...
