The fortunes of a beautiful Elizabethan house called Merravay, built in Suffolk for a queen to sleep in, then loved and hated through four centuries. Told in eight episodic narratives by a fascinating pageant of characters including--a pirate, witch, bawd, rake, recluse, and lovers, all of whom play a vital part in the house's history.
