Enter the tangled Victorian marriage of Arthur and Karima just as their lives begin to unravel. As we read their intimate letters and diaries, and overhear their conversations we begin to detect undercurrents of deep and secret passions. As the year progresses we follow Arthur's attempt to find a cure for his friend's illness, a developing obsession with arcane ideas that lead him into a dangerous underworld. Lonely and neglected, Karima finds new friends and begins her own journey, one which promises to liberate her from the rigid conventions that stifle Victorian women, but one which also leaves her vulnerable to the influences of more worldly characters. Can Arthur and Karima learn from their adventures and emerge stronger together or will they be consumed by the secrets they unearth?
