Wealthy, charismatic Ernest Farrow has everything he could ever want--almost. When young artist Samuel Godwin arrives to tutor Farrow's beautiful but troubled daughters, Godwin and the girls' governess gradually discover the extent of Farrow's obsessions and the resultant dark family secrets. Set during the late-nineteenth century, this Victorian Gothic will appeal to Brontë fans.
