The affair sours; he is denounced and summoned before a committee of inquiryWilling to admit his guilt, but refusing to yield to pressure to repent publicly, he resigns and retreats to his daughter Lucy''s isolated smallholding.
For a time, his daughter''s influence and the natural rhythms of the farm promise to harmonise his discordant lifeBut the balance of power in the country is shifting. He and Lucy become victims of a savage and disturbing attack which brings into relief all the faultlines in their relationship.
