Curiosity killed the cat… When Florence Knight arrives at Holbrook House for August, she looks forward to reconnecting with friends and moving past her last season's disappointments. The local young men bore her, until she meets her hostess's brother, Henry. Sophisticated and amusing, Henry seems unaware of her existence, but Florence is drawn to him. Sinister happenings at a neighboring estate raise her concerns for his safety, prompting her to offer her help, whether he wants it or not. A wanderer returns… After years abroad, Henry Stanhope is pleased to find Saxenhurst Hall well-kept. However, strange occurrences begin as he settles back in—things vanish only to reappear in odd places, and a mysterious corn doll, The Maiden, follows him. Though he dismisses these as mere quirks of the old house, they unsettle him. A cunning woman… Florence is not convinced by Henry’s indifference to the strange events or his feelings for her. With her friends' support, she investigates, uncovering a centuries-old vendetta that entangles her further. A tenant for life… As the situation escalates, Henry starts to realize the seriousness of Florence's concerns, especially when a ghostly encounter threatens his life. Despite his initial reluctance, he finds himself falling for her and contemplates marriage, all while facing an uncertain future.
