Crime, Drama, Mystery |
After finishing her exams, Rosie goes to stay with her father, the parish priest David Byfield (Charles Dance), only to find that he wants to marry again. His interest is a woman named Vanessa (Niamh Cusack). Rosie initially opposes the idea, but then seemingly changes her mind. After the wedding, a woman named Juliana and the local historian Audrey Oliphant (Barbara Wilshere) both try to obtain the Journals of Francis Youlgrave - who lived at the local manor house - from their owner, Lady Youlgrave (Sheila Hancock). Lady Youlgrave used to own the local manor, but she later sold it to some hippies because she was too old to properly maintain it. Having learned that her exam results will not get her into Cambridge, Rosie takes out her anger on the young Michael (Greg Sheffield), who has come to stay with them while his parents are on a second honeymoon. After Michael sees Rosie murder her stepmother and attempt to destroy the journals, he tells his family, and Rosie is arrested. However, before they take her away, she threatens the whole family by screaming, "You will all suffer for this!" seeming to target Michael specifically. Sometime after this, her father finds that Rosie has been released and apparently killed in a car crash, of which an 'Angela Wharton' is the sole witness.
