A rich American art-collector and his daughter Maggie buy in for themselves and to their greater glory a beautiful young wife and a ble husband. They do t kw that Charlotte and Prince Amerigo were formerly lovers, r that on the eve of the Prince's marriage they had discovered, in a Bloomsbury antique shop, a golden bowl with a secret flaw. When the golden bowl is broken, Maggie must leave the security of her childhood and try to reassemble the pieces of her shattered happiness.
