A rich man dies and leaves all his money in trust for his son and daughter. But one of his trustees is his estranged ex-wife, and to her he leaves only a beautiful country house and an income of twenty thousand pounds a year. Not nearly enough for an extravagant and greedy lady with a passion for the best things in life. But Marion is resourceful and immediately turns her considerable charm on one of her fellow trustees: Geoffrey Montacute, the dry-as-dust bachelor solicitor who lives with his mother in a gloomy suburban villa. So Marion, with no clear plan in mind, but an unerring instinct for the main chance, sets out to seduce him.
