Stephen Marling believed he had a thorough understanding of his aunt Flora. However, upon inheriting her house in a peaceful square in south London, a series of discoveries among her papers revealed an entirely different person. Who was Mr. Magenta, and what role did he play in her life? As Stephen delved into uncovering the secrets of one life, he was compelled to re-evaluate his own and determine his true desires. Was he justified in abandoning Nancy Steiner, the young actress he met in New York, upon returning home to claim his inheritance? The story seamlessly weaves past and present, taking him from a Brooklyn bookshop to a theatre in Marseille and finally to a cottage on the east coast of England, where the truth about Mr. Magenta is finally unveiled.
