Non sa nulla del mondo a parte quello che ha appreso dai romanzi che legge avidamente. In una notte di bufera Phillip Tempest, bello, seducente e misterioso, arriva alla casa sulla scogliera. Rosamond, che sogna la libertà, ne rimane subito affascinata e accetta di seguirlo e di diventare sua moglie. Ma dopo un breve periodo di vita felice, si trova presa in una rete di intrighi, crudeltà e d'inganni legati all'oscuro passato dell'uomo in cui ha riposto la sua fiducia. Per salvarsi dalla perdizione Rosamond fugge, tenacemente inseguita da Phillip, in Italia, in Francia e in Germania, da una soffitta parigina a un manicomio, da un convento a un castello. Phillip non le dà tregua, ricorrendo a tutti i mezzi pur di riconquistarla.
