It is midsummer at Blackmere Grange in Devon, and Rosalind Merrow has lived alone in the honey-coloured house for three years, stitching commissions and keeping the dog-rose trimmed, on the strength of a promise that was never put to paper. Now the Duke of Wrexham has arrived with a sealed deed, a cheque paid in full, and no intention of leaving before the season turns — and Rosalind cannot make him go without proving, in writing, a claim she does not have. With his household expected to follow by the week's end, she has perhaps four days to find the name of whoever sold him a house that was never for sale.
