The Inheritance

THE YOUNG LADY, GERTRUDE ST. CLAIR, ARRIVES AT THE SCOTTISH ESTATE OF LORD ROSSVILLE TO TAKE UP HER POSITION AS HIS HEIRESS.

She is enraptured with all she sees and delighted to make the acquaintance of her family. The denizens of Rossville Castle form a gallery of humorous and eccentric figures.

However, Gertrude soon discovers that her uncle, in the interest of preserving the family line and estate, has already made a match for her while her mother, desperate to sustain her own position, embroils them with a shadowy figure from the past.

Can Gertrude prevail? Will she claim her inheritance? Will it be at the expense of her heart?
