Whilst in hospital following a road accident Carey Revell receives a visit from a Solicitor who advises him that he has inherited Mossby, a large but quite rundown house in Lancashire, from Francis Revell an uncle he didn't know he had. Carey is the last in the family line.
At the same time, his childhood friend Angel Arrowsmith, following the sudden death of her working and living partner, finds herself out of both a job and a home as her partner's son takes control and throws her out.
Carey and Angel move into Mossby together and start work on the house. There is also a glass workshop in the grounds which will be used for Angel to start up her own business designing and making stained glass windows. There are stained glass windows in Mossby and one very significant window is in need or repair.
There are stories about the house being haunted. There are some old priest holes and secret panels in the walls, the access to which is only handed down to the male inheritors within the family. Francis' step daughter from a previous marriage lives with her husband in the gatehouse and had been the housekeeper. She is obsessive about the panelling in one of the wings. She is not happy that the house was inherited by Carey and not her.
