Lady Katharine is trapped between two impossible
choices. Either she will marry the cousin she despises, or marry
Philip, to whom she was pledged in childhood. The prospect of staying
at her family estate with her uncle and cousin is so unfavorable
that she chooses Philip to avoid an immediate attachment to her
cousin.
Suddenly, the accidental deaths of her traveling
companions offer her the chance she has awaited. With no one left
alive to vouch for her identity, she hatches a brilliant plan to
exchange identities with her lady's maid, who was killed in the
accident. But when the impersonation fools Philip, formerly her
betrothed, she learns that it might have been a terrible mistake.
Lady Katherine soon finds herself like a spider caught
in her own web. When she is discovered in her lie, she must confess
all, with disastrous results that leave her to wonder if she'll
ever regain Philip's trust.
