Publisher's Synopsis
To escape the attentions of a persistent ex-mistress, the Marquis of Aldridge retreats to his country home in Essex. As fancy-free as he is handsome and wealthy, he little dreams that the so-called witch whom he gallantly rescues from a bloodthirsty village mob can cast a spell over even his fickle and unloving heart. Idylla has lost her memory, and through his attempts to discover the secret of her past, the Marquis uncovers a cruel and murderous plot against her life.
