The story revolves around the life of a young woman named Lucy Fountain, who is brought up by her wealthy aunt and uncle after her parents' death. Lucy is engaged to a man named George Talboys, who disappears mysteriously while on a trip to Australia.

As the story unfolds, Lucy discovers the truth about Mr. Carr and must decide whether to reveal his secret or keep it hidden to protect herself and her family. The novel explores themes of love, betrayal, and deception, and is considered a classic of Victorian literature.So wise, so proud, so little vain, so strong in health and wealth and honor, one would have said nothing less than an earthquake could shake this gentleman and his house.
