The story

Lady Helen Haden—descended from the aristocratic but notorious “Mad Varicks”—lives amid immense wealth and refinement at her country estate near London. Despite her beauty, status, and the admiration she inspires, she is profoundly unhappy. Her husband, Sir Bruce Haden—a coarse, jealous man of comparatively humble origins (a former butcher elevated to baronetcy)—subjects her to repeated humiliations fueled by drink, suspicion, and violent temper.
