A young married woman contemplates leaving her husband for another man, and seeks advice from an elderly peer and his partner, who eloped thirty years earlier

The fresh-faced and vivacious Lady Kitty abandons both her politician husband and her young son Arnold for a scandalous life with her husband’s best friend, Lord Porteous.

Three decades later, the still vivacious though not as fresh-faced Kitty returns to confront the family she long-ago abandoned, and a new scandal when a charming houseguest threatens to take Arnold’s own wife, Elizabeth, from him.

Will the new couple be influenced by Kitty’s wicked example? Or will practicality trump passion once and for all?
