Mr. Leopold Savage's rakehell reputation went before him. Thus, when he became stranded at the widow, Mrs. Primrose Hythe's home, he was not surprised by her cold reception.
He was, however, surprised to be captured by a precocious six-year-old, a cantankerous cat and chicken-pox under one roof. And to find the widow becoming an agreeable, if not enchanting, companion.
Yet he never suspected her to be hiding a secret so deep and dark that even he was loath to believe it.
