The story of a British diplomat called Harrington Brande who is relocated to Cataluña, Spain, after his marriage falls by the way side. Taking his young son Nicholas with him, Harrington is perturbed when Nicholas forms a loving and trusting friendship with the estate gardener Jose. Bitten by jealousy and tortured by his own inadequacies as a father, Brande becomes nasty and spiteful, and it gets to the point where he will stop at nothing to break up the friendship. All of which is keenly observed by the shifty, and often drunk butler, whom it seems has a very vested interest in the family proceedings.
