At Evenswood Estate in Concord, Massachusetts, Edith Adelon lives as Amy Hamilton's paid companion despite their family's initial disdain. Years ago, Henry Hamilton rescued Edith from an orphanage at his brother’s request. Now, Edith is Amy and Ida Glenshaw's confidante. During the Greens Cup horse race, Beatrice Hamilton asks Edith to find a suitable husband for her cousin, Ida Glenshaw. However, both eligible suitors show affection towards Edith rather than Ida. As their love grows despite social barriers, jealousy intensifies and leads to malicious backstabbing. Despite this, The Inheritance is about an innocent young woman's struggle with her position within the Hamilton household and society, as well as her feelings for patrons and a young man she can never marry due to conflicting social classes.
