In Fosdinovo, Italy, the Castello di Malaspina serves as the final resting place for Bianca Malaspina, an albino girl who defied her noble family by falling for a stable boy. Her parents punished her by sealing her alive in the dungeon. Meanwhile, in Poole, England, Upton House becomes embroiled in a legal battle when a man from Wagga Wagga, Australia, claims to be Roger Tichborne, the rightful heir who supposedly drowned a decade earlier.
