Ellen Melville is a beautiful suffragette who, at seventeen, wants passionately to experience all that life can give her.

From her abandoned, impoverished mother she inherits only a capacity for love and this she freely gives when she meets Richard Yaverland, charming, experienced, a man of the world.

But Richard is the illegitamate son of a powerful and frustrated woman.

Marion Yaverland uses her own betrayal by Richard's father to imprison her son, creating a murderous bond which destroys everything it touches.

The strugges of Ellen and Richard to survive the sins of their fathers takes its inevitable course: giving freely to her passionate lover, Ellen commences a re-enactment of all that has gone before.
