At the start of the volume, Edward Arundel returns to his home in Lincolnshire with a strong resolve to leave behind the memories tied to Paul Marchmont's perceived wrongdoings. Despite his grief and longing for his deceased wife, he embarks on a quest for revenge, culminating in a dramatic confrontation with Marchmont during a hunting gathering. Meanwhile, Paul Marchmont revels in his newfound riches, yet fears the implications of Arundel’s wrath.
