No one knows my genuine name. Nobody knows the truth about that summer.
A group of young painters headed by the gifted and driven Edward Radcliffe arrive to Birchwood Manor on the Upper Thames banks in the summer of 1862. Their idea was to lose themselves in a creative and imaginative fog for a month during the quiet summer. However, by the time their visit is finished, Edward Radcliffe's life has fallen apart, a precious relic has vanished, and one lady has been shot dead and another has vanished.
More than 150 years later, a young archivist in London named Elodie Winslow finds a leather satchel with two seemingly unrelated items inside: an artist's sketchbook with a drawing of a twin-gabled house on a river bend and a sepia photograph of an arresting-looking woman dressed in Victorian attire.
Why does Elodie feel like she knows Birchwood Manor so well? Who is the stunning lady in the picture, by the way? Is she ever going to reveal her secrets?
