โœฆ Synopsis


As the story opens, we soon learn that Sir Thomas Fitzgerald, the owner of Castle Richmond in County Cork, has descended into a long-lasting depression. The cause, one can guess, is a guilty secret. It is embodied in the persons of a pair of blackmailers, the Molletts: a drunken father and an unscrupulous son. They are trying to extort money from Sir Thomas in return for their silence on the subject of the revelations they threaten: about his wife, specifically, which if published will disinheirit his children in favour of his relative, Owen Fitzgerald.
