The opening of the novel depicts Malvina at the grave of her friend Clair, expressing her deep sorrow and sense of loss. As she prepares to leave, she reflects on her past, revealing her independent spirit as she chooses to prioritize her friendship over her own home in France. With a heavy heart, Malvina undertakes a journey to Scotland, where she will live with her cousin, Mrs. Birtton, and take care of Clair’s young daughter.
