After initial hesitation Magdalen Vanstone agrees to Captain Wragge's suggestion that he should be her manager and agent. He is about to enquire into the whereabouts of Michael Vanstone on her behalf, when the death of the latter places the fortune in the hands of his son, Noel Vanstone , who is traced to a small residence in London where he is in the constant company of a formidable housekeeper, Mrs. Lecount. It is to London that Magdalen proceeds with the wretched Mrs. Wragge in search of further information.
