The novel revolves around a beautiful, hardworking young woman named Marnie, who is sent off to be married to a lord in order to let her family keep their house and farm. Traveling to their new seaside cottage home with her new husband, she encounters a boy her age who is being whipped. Raven is known as a madman with demons.
