Nothing changes. Each year they return. The house remains the same. The high-ceilinged rooms are gloomy; it is rare to see bright shafts of sunlight squeeze through the shuttered windows. During the day, they escape; some swim in the sea, others stroll along the promenade or take rides to the Downs. The house is quiet, only those below remain. In the evening they reconvene and the business of eating, drinking, clearing tables, carrying trays is enacted - all have their role to play. But can they retain balance in the delicate social structure they have created or will the secrets that lie below come to the surface and cause irreparable damage that will finally change everything?
