A grim, isolated house in the suburb of Fyleford, shut away behind padlocked gates and barbed wire since the Blitz, is home to the Thorrold family: the domineering Miss Jane, the bed-ridden matriarch no one is permitted to see, and their reluctant servants Emma and Luke. Into this oppressive household arrives Yvonne, the illegitimate and long-disowned Thorrold daughter, who comes as a penniless orphan from the free life of Parisian cafés but refuses to be broken, and whose curiosity about the secrets surrounding old Mrs. Thorrold sets her on a collision course with Miss Jane's iron control.
