When a fortune-teller sees an unusual curve on six-year-old Richard Porter's palm, she predicts that his life will be troubled by family divisions...Born into a wealthy family in 1816, Richard will one day inherit his father's brewery. His siblings' and cousins' lives are similarly mapped out to run the family estates. But as the years pass, family rifts bring heartache in business and in love.
