Just as the 1832 Reform Act is about to change the bucolic and conservatively ordered way of life forever in Treby Magna, two native sons return home. Harold Transome, heir to Transome Court, comes to claim his inheritance and campaign for a Radical seat in Parliament. Felix Holt, and artisan and very different radical, returns to stir the new electorate to a sense of worth and destiny.
