It's the fall of 1908 at the stately Withering Heights Estate. It’s the weekend of Algernon and Catherine’s wedding, and no one is happy about it — not the bride and bridegroom, not the family, not the neighbors, not the servants, not even the entertainment — the Roving Society of Poets and Yoemen. But especially not Algernon’s brother, Heathcliff, and his friend, Lady Virginia, who have raced home from their world travels to be at the wedding. Strange things start happening, and it appears the wedding is off. But maybe all is not what it seems?
