Tragedy befalls the prestigious Windfield School in 1866. A young student perishes in an unexplained incident involving a group of guys. A life-long web of deceit that spans three decades is set in motion by the drowning and its aftermath.

Ken Follett creates a striking array of contrasts, from the glittering ballrooms and mahogany-paneled suites of the manipulators of the world's riches to the private men's club and brothels that serve to every dark whim of London's upper classes. This magnificent book depicts a family torn apart by desire yet united by a common past.Men and women are carried into a dangerous climax where avarice, fueled by the startling reality of a boy's murder, must be curbed in order to prevent the death of not only one man's aspirations but also the dreams of a whole country.
