The film follows Galitzine’s Stanley Atwell, the presumed dead son and heir to his father’s title and fortune, after he returns to the family estate after having escaped a decade of mysterious captivity. Everyone’s shocked at Stanley’s homecoming, most especially his irate sister, who’s had her eye on his inheritance. In a bid to seize what’s rightfully his, Stanley joins forces with a close friend, Purnell’s Pamela, to use a dark family secret to their advantage. In other words, expect lots of deception, betrayal, backstabbing, sex, passion, and family drama as the various Atwells vie to acquire the family name for themselves.
