Set against the backdrop of a cholera-stricken town in China, the story follows Kitty Garstin, who marries Walter Fane out of convenience rather than love. Feeling isolated and unfulfilled, she embarks on a two-year affair, which leads to a pivotal turning point when Walter chooses to take her on a journey instead of seeking a divorce. Through her experiences in this dangerous environment, Kitty confronts profound truths about herself, love, and the complexities of life, ultimately transforming her perspective.
