Samuel is haunted by his wartime experiences and believes that his regiment was betrayed by someone who fought in the war with him. He vows to find the traitor. When Lady Emeline learns this, she also wants to know who was responsible for her brother's death in battle. As they spend time together, Lady Emeline feels an attraction but she is betrothed to her long time friend and Samuel's fellow soldier, Jasper Renshaw, Viscount Vale.
