It's 1950, and David Armitage, an old poet, sitting in the tangled and overgrown garden, has been left alone in the huge old wreckage of the Pendragon house by the death of his housekeeper and long time friend Sarah. His half-sisters Lizzy and Molly keep fussing at him, but the unexpected connection he makes is with his troubled and lost niece Becky, who's considering abandoning her children and running away. Part of the long series of Pendragon County plays.
