Caroline Grey is devastated when she is dismissed from her post as governess to the Earl of Braithwaite's sisters. Finding temporary sanctuary at the eerie and neglected Haven Hall, she does not expect to enjoy the challenges presented by the house's dark and forbidding tenant, Javan Benedict, or by her mute and needy pupil. However, she is quickly intrigued by the oddly charming family and drawn into the several mysteries surrounding them and the hall. What tragedy lurks in Benedict's past, and why does his daughter choose not to speak? Who is trying to frighten them from the house? And most of all, what is the irresistible fascination of Caroline's troubled employer, and how does she help him without losing her heart and her reputation?
