Set in Wales, this 1854 drama by Westland Marston is steeped in the Romantic tradition of the early Victorian era. Proud, rebellious Anne Blake is an orphan, left wholly dependent on her haughty aunt and uncle. Sir Joshua and his wife heartlessly seek to separate Anne from her beloved Thorold, a visiting artist… or so he has led everyone to believe... When Anne learns the truth of his identity, will her anger and wounded pride destroy their love? - Summary by Kelly Taylor
