Mary Belper works in a mill just outside Haworth. But a week before her wedding one single strand of her long hair gets

caught in the rollers of a carding machine, and she is gone.

A tragic industrial accident that could have been avoided if only the owner were more responsible. The unbearable weight

of pain sets her betrothed, John Hubbart of Sleighton Beck to seek expression in the only craft he truly knows, that of Kite

building... also to seek revenge for Mary's untimely death on the factory floor.
