Thomas Longleat had risen from humble beginnings to become Premier of Leichardt's Land. His political judgment is clouded by passion when he uses his position to spend time with a colleague's wife. His eldest daughter, Honoria, is caught between adolescence and womanhood. She is headstrong, and without a mother to guide her. She rejects every eligible suitor. When she is charmed by Hardress Barrington, a visiting English nobleman and a rising politician loyal to her father. Little did she know that he had no intention of marrying her, the daughter of a self-made man and that he had plans to set her up as his mistress.
