Description: Agnes Makepeace has always been courageous and strong-minded, and she is determined to discover the truth about her mysterious background. She believes the key lies with her husband's employer, Judge Zachary Spencer of Lambert House. Judge Spencer has long neglected his daughter Helen, but when he takes a new wife, he underestimates his daughter's misery and her capacity for revenge. Helen's new-found confidence has a lasting and shocking impact on both families and leads to a lifelong friendship with Agnes, but it is only when Agnes finds the answers she has been seeking that she can finally achieve peace of mind.
