Summary

The Spoils of Poynton: A Battle for Beauty and Affection

Mrs. Gereth sees in Fleda Vetch the perfect daughter-in-law, someone who truly understands and cherishes her beloved antique treasures at Poynton Park. But her son, Owen, is engaged to the unsophisticated Mona Brigstock, igniting a fierce family conflict.

Caught in the middle is the hesitant Fleda, who finds herself drawn to Owen, though she resists his advances. Is she driven by morality, or something else entirely?
