When Jesse took a wild and wanton Irish girl for his bride, Clemence, growing to womanhood, felt the sharp pangs of jealousy. But handsome, menacing Luke Karran was soon to occupy all her thoughts. Luke, son of the black-eyed Johanne, thought by many to be a witch, was driven by dark and destructive urges...

At the Midsummer Revels, Clemence, emboldened by a love-philtre. meets Luke in a passionate encounter — but when she finds she is with child, Luke is cold and distant, his affections by now elsewhere... until the night when he walks with Clemence on the treacherous Chasms...
