In Victorian-era England, the story unfolds as a peculiar governess makes her way to a secluded, gloomy mansion. There, mysterious occurrences raise doubts about whether she is truly who she claims to be.
The book goes on to explain that Winifred Notty, pretending to be an exemplary governess, will teach her charges, Drusilla and Andrew, and even amuse them with jokes about eating children.

As she despises the arrogant Pounds children, Winifred battles to suppress her violent impulses from the past.
