Adele, daughter of French author and patriot Victor Hugo, is beautiful, composed and filled with the same brilliant writing talent as her famous father. However, Adele is driven not by literary aspirations but by love. Impelled by a need that will not be denied, she has run away from home to follow her handsome, womanizing lover (Bruce Robinson) across an ocean to wintry Halifax, Nova Scotia. Wild with desire, she'llrisk everything to renew their brief affair. And if she can't win him back, there'll be a terrible price to pay. (official distributor synopsis)

A deep well cannot quench the thirst of devoted love. Men should fight for these eyes, not make them cry. ()
