After their father’s death, Judith and Peregrine Taverner travel to London in 1811 to meet their guardian, the Earl of Worth.

Unhappy with the responsibility, he seeks to undermine the Taverner siblings and return them to the country. Yet as they enter the highest social circles, the Earl cannot resist becoming involved with their affairs. Judith, a beautiful heiress, captures the attention of many suitors, while Peregrine feels threatened by the Earl’s presence.
