The story unfolds at a weekend gathering at the Jervaise estate, where a diverse group of characters from different social backgrounds come together, leading to a series of comedic and dramatic events. Central to the plot is the romantic entanglement between Brenda, the Jervaise family's rebellious daughter, and Arthur Banks, a socially ambitious young man. As their relationship defies the rigid class expectations of the time, tensions rise and secrets are revealed. Beresford masterfully captures the nuances of Edwardian society, using wit and satire to critique its conventions and hypocrisies.
