Mais l'arrivée d'une belle jeune anglaise, Wendy Sinclair, accessoirement amante du maître de maison, change brusquement la donne : s'instaure entre l'enfant et la jeune femme une complicité inattendue qui arrachera peu à peu ce premier à son isolement et cette dernière à l'emprise d'hommes qui la convoitent.
