In this volume, Maltravers re-enters London society after a period spent abroad, initially full of hope but soon finding himself disillusioned by its superficial pleasures. As he moves among notable figures, he reflects on the emptiness he perceives in their lives and is ultimately drawn back to his past reminiscences, particularly regarding Alice Darvil and the enigmatic Valerie de Ventadour.
