This is a story of a rogue family vested in power and privilege, with events beginning in early Edwardian times to the present day, when one dark November evening, a young doctoral student, busy archiving at a museum in a Welsh town hears the hats she is conserving whisper the stories of their owners. What she hears makes her try to find the truth. Assisted by a security guard at the museum, she is drawn into a story of power and abuse, broken lives and survivors. The search develops into a campaign for justice for Eleri Gryffydd, a pregnant girl, barely sixteen, who threw herself to death from a hillside and others about her. However, the family with the power still exits.
