Recently orphaned, Judith Sparrow has no choice but to be taken in by her stem uncle Geoffrey. He agreed to the arrangement with only one stipulation. Judith could bring all her belongings with her, except for anything green. The color green is strictly forbidden in his house. She finds comfort in her new surroundings from Mrs. Hastings, her uncles's housekeeper; and even at times her uncle seems willing to open up to her. But then strange things begin to happen, and her happiness in her new home, and a budding romance with the miller's son, are compromised by the terrifying events that have taken place. But she can't tell anyone about these incidents, because she suspects that these terrifying events may be occurring because of the one possession she kept that is against the rules. Hidden in her mink is a small green picture frame given to her by her mother.
