When Morewenna Tregarth's father is accidentally ridden down and killed by young Maxwell Thurlow the whole course of her life is changed. A half-wild penniless orphan, she is taken into the household of the wealthy Thurlow family to be educated and brought up as companion to Maxwell's half sister, Jessica. While she is never allowed to forget that she is a charity child, she is content enough until Maxwell returns from the East Indies with his beautiful delicate bride-to-be and her sinister Malay servant. Their arrival triggers off a series of events that bring Morwenna both love and tragedy.
