Poor Edward Daniell had no idea he’d married a socialist firebrand when he acquired a wife eight years ago. Nineteen-year-old Miriam Wheeler had a conventional Victorian childhood but became more and more unconventional as the years went by.

Her condition is so unmentionable that no-one (not even her husband) cares to discuss it, but it necessitates trips to Edinburgh so that she can consult with her Lady Doctor. After one of these trips, Miriam returns home to Bristol bringing a young man she met in Edinburgh, a Scot from Dunfermline who quit medical school in Edinburgh to become yet another Socialist firebrand…
