Trevelyan's jealousy begins with nothing and ends with it. The mildly rakish attentions of Colonel Osborne, M.P., to Emily are the immediate cause, but they soon fade before the fearsome clash of wills that horrifies (i.e. entertains) London society. Reconciliation? The misunderstanding has quietly, insidiously assumed control of all, and the Trevelyans' child becomes the obvious pawn; violent schemes prepare for the fatal climax. -- Cover, page [4]

Major themes of the novel include the organization of laborers, eradication of disorder, and the role of the exceptional man in society. The latter theme led post-World War II critics to compare Anderson's militaristic approach to homosocial order and the fascists of the War's Axis powers.
