Jane Claremont, a not-so-innocent 19th-century English novice, is just about to be ordained a nun when she begins to experience intense sexual visions – and ones that have the knack of becoming true. This news reaches Lady Elaine, a benefactress of the convent, and she entices Jane away with the promise of a better life.
While Jane is greatly attracted by Elaine’s beauty, she starts to feel that there is a more sinister reason for the other woman’s interest – and that this reason may also involve local ‘wild woman’ Hazel Brannagan, who lives independently on the edge of Lady Elaine’s estate.
