Summary:

A peer never begs or pleads, his father had once said, that would be vulgar. Thomas had realised that he was not, and never would be, his father. That he was vulgar, his base desires too shocking for a man like his father to consider. Thomas wanted men with their beards and their rough hands and their heat, and he might marry but he would always want to be with men.

Or, the story of Thomas Hamilton, and those he met from his first love to his last.
