After the death of his mother, a young Rollan Greyson faces a life of pain and loneliness brought about when his grief stricken father abandons him. Years later, his father returns with a new wife. But the new loving mother figure turns out to be a murderess and threatens Rollan's life if he reveals her secret. Yet she is not his only danger. His father's illegitimate half brother, seeking revenge for his loss of position and fortune, devises a sinister plan to rid himself of both father and son. Beaten and left for dead, Rollan is rescued by a stranger. Later, lured back to England, he must face his demons; his only consolation is Claire Mathews, the woman he has lost his heart to.
