Maud Bailey, a brilliant English academic, is researching the life and work of poet Christabel La Motte.

When Maud and Roland discover a cache of love letters that appear to be from Ash to La Motte, they follow a trail of clues across England, echoing the journey of the couple over a century earlier.
