Edith Dalton returned from her ride to find the girls at Plympton Terrace watching her in unnatural silence. Edith, Miss Plympton wants you upstairs before you join us. You step into this one-chapter preview with Miss Plympton at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. Edith lifted the first fold, about to meet the accusation that had governed her whole childhood. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
