It took Peggy Heller a long period of time to recoup from the trauma of a ruthless physical assault, endured in her young people. When she wed Robert, he supplied her with the love and reassurance she craved for and also both settled in a rather home in the grounds of the general public institution where Robert was a master. However the headmaster of the school is not what he appears and also Penny is convinced he suggests to hurt her - is her worry a fantasy of her tortured creativity or are there forces at work that plan to adjust her anxiousness with deadly consequences?
