En un molino-restaurante a orillas del Necker, en Alemania, un grupo de viajeros se siente atraído por el retrato de una mujer de tez y expresión enigmáticas. El dueño del molino les muestra un documento que cuenta la historia de esta mujer, que la narradora se dispone a traducir. La bella hija de un molinero de Heidelberg pasa una temporada en Carlsruhe, invitada por una antigua amiga del colegio. Allí, a través de la pretenciosa madre de su amiga, es pretendida por un noble francés, monsieur de la Tourelle, y, con la aprobación de todos, se casa con él.

Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell, often referred to as Mrs Gaskell, was an English novelist, biographer, and short story writer. Her novels offer detailed studies of Victorian society, including the lives of the very poor. Her first novel, Mary Barton, was published in 1848. Her only biography The Life of Charlotte Brontë, published in 1857, was controversial and significant in establishing the Brontë family's lasting fame. Among Gaskell's best known novels are Cranford (1851–1853), North and South (1854–1855), and Wives and Daughters (1864–1866), all of which have been adapted for television by the BBC.
