The guests are mid-way through their stay, during the long, hot summer days of 1811.
Mr Gorell Barnes reminds the chaperones that they should be engineering more situations and distractions - with six weeks to go till the end of the party, complacency should be the last thing on their minds. Miss Hopkins' chaperone Elizabeth, Lady Devonport, is about to embark on a dangerous liaison with the young Mr Foxsmith, and Miss Hopkins indulges in a little Emma-esque matchmaking with Miss Braund's heart as the hapless casualty.
The indefatigable Mrs Hammond hatches a theatrical plot to secure a gentleman's hand for her charge and Miss Braund does end up in Mr Everett's arms. But will the resultant love-triangle end in a gothic romance, or tragedy?
