Plot: In 1916 the impressionable fifteen-year-old George Ledra is sent from Manchester to Cornwall because of his ill-health. Here he meets Hector Chown, a professor of Greek. Hector is living in a derelict house with his actress niece, Sylvia Bascombe and her young daughter, Janet. The story of how their lives become entwined spans the years of uncertainty between the two World Wars and, ever present in the tale, the house becomes a symbol of the fragility of their world.
