A young woman without prospects at a ball in Gilded Age Newport, Rhode Island is a target for a certain kind of "suitor". At the Memorial Day Ball during the Panic of 1893, impoverished but feisty Penelope Stanton draws the unwanted advances of a villainous millionaire banker who preys on distressed women--the incorrigible Edgar Daggers. Over a series of encounters he promises Penelope the financial security she craves, but at what cost?
