When Austin King entertains some distant relatives he unwittingly sets in motion events that will threaten his marriage, his law practice and his standing in the community. Austin's eagerness to please his foster cousin Nora is mistaken for other motives, especially since Nora is besotted with him.

  Synopsis Details Reviews  
The decision to invite his Southern relatives to stay proves a fateful one for Austin King. By the time they leave, his reputation and his marriage have suffered irreparable damage. Against the perfectly-drawn background of small-town Illinois at the turn of the 20th century, Maxwell once again uncovers the seeds of potential tragedy at the heart of a happily-established family.
