Synopsis
“Mrs.
Otcott, that great actress in the tradition of the Siddons, the Oldfield, Bracegirdle and O’Neill, is spending a quiet month in Wales.”
Mrs. Otcott is sorting through the artifacts of her past when an old lover appears.
He’s a former actor, now married, a father, and nothing less than an Anglican Bishop with ambitions – i.e., a man of the cloth who needs to be sure that an earlier chapter of his life is safely buried away.
