Lois Reddle is a young girl who works as a clerk in a lawyer’s office. One day her boss, Mr. Shaddles, asks her to pay a visit to Telsbury women’s prison on a legal errand. Whilst there she encounters an intriguing inmate only to discover that she is a notorious convicted murderer. Regardless of this fact she is somehow drawn to this woman and finds she remains on her mind after the visit. Her boss then recommends Lois to be hired by an esteemed client, and she takes on a job at the home of the Countess of Moron. Soon she encounters a man named Michael Dorn who seems to be more than interested in her life and begins to ingratiate himself to her. This puzzles her and what follows is a life changing turn of events that she never could have imagined, revealing facets of her life of which she was unaware. As the story unfolds her past gradually becomes known and her true destiny is revealed. – Summary by Howard Skyman
