So she opts for the only choice she has:  an abandoned cottage somewhere in the country.  It's rundown and daunting, but she and Emmett face up to the task and somehow manage.  Poor child has just lost his parents and wealthy relatives don't want him; but it's clear that Meg does, and she even puts up with the exuberant dog that has a tendency to wander afield.  And whose field does Perseus explore?  Why the abutting property of the wicked man of the title, a rake known far and wide for his scandalous behavior.  This novel has meat to it and is well worth reading to find out what happens when Meg and Emmett and Perseus cross paths with the roué Lord.
