In this historical romance, successful solicitor and confirmed bachelor, Robert Ames receives a final letter from his estranged brother. This appeal takes him from his comfortable London home to the town of Augustine, Grenada and the care of a young woman, Miss Julianne Hughes. Questions about about her sanity, her position in society and his role in it all arise. In constant tension with the esteemed asylum manager, Dr. Cornelius Stenon, Robert must discover whether Julianne's actions are those of a mad woman or just a woman tired of societal constraints who has been pushed beyond the limits of any human mind. Against the backdrop of the Caribbean, he has to decide for himself what he believes and how it will change both their lives.
