Set on Prince Edward Island, the story follows Eric Marshall, a young teacher who encounters Kilmeny, a mute girl with exceptional hearing. Their bond deepens as he is enchanted by her violin playing, leading to a heartfelt romance. Despite their mutual love, Kilmeny declines his marriage proposal, fearing her disability would burden his life. Eric's friend, a throat specialist, suggests that only a profound psychological need could enable her to speak, adding complexity to their relationship and the challenges they face.
