Located in the Blue Mountains in the late 1930s, this compelling story has as its centre a wealthy upper middle class family, the St. James. The focus is on Eve, the mother, and the two daughters, Stevie and Bea, and a young man who becomes a frequent visitor to the St. James' household; taken in by Eve after the death of his guardian, Angus Weekes cannot resist becoming involved in the ultimately tragic patterns of their lives. The story is told from the viewpoints of Angus (part one), Bea (part two) and Eve (part three).
