Meg Dods, a sentimental virago, keeps a rundown inn in a derelict Tweedale village, while the young Laird is living way beyond his means. When a nearby spring becomes a Spa, life changes as a hotel and a troop of social climbers move in. But this is not a tale of antique virtue giving way todecadent ostentation: although the gang at the "Wel" dance the seven deadly sins, everyone in the book has feet of clay.
