A tale where love and the occult collide. Artist Bernard Lendon is entranced by young American actress Beatrice Brett when they meet on board a ship bound for Southampton. Later, in London, their paths cross once more. Together, they help to bring a long-neglected play back to life, and the flame of love flickers to life. Occult practices abound around them in Bohemian London. When the infamous Countess Adrian sets her sights on Bernard, she harnesses her knowledge of the occult to attempt to take Beatrice’s place, and avoid her own predicted death.
