About this title

Synopsis

New York in the early 1850s. The young, handsome and charming Thomas Westfield has come to the city with no particular ambition. Soon he is swept into the world of politics by day and bordellos by night. Playing his connections into wealth and respectability, Westfield manages a beneficial but cold and loveless marriage with the rich and conventional Louise. His heart seeks solace with the young Kate Regan, who is adoptive mother of the young Michael, a boy who grows up seeking revenge for the murder of his parents. As each Westfield generation goes through life, blinded by their dreams of love and retribution, they suffer the inevitable fate of all dreamers - the possibilities of their dreams coming true.
