Contest Of Wills

In Sydney, Australia, in the late 1870s, vivacious young Melanie marries

a man old enough to be her grandfather. On a trip to England, their entire journey

is cut short by his sudden death. She inherits his entire fortune unaware

that her late husband has a grandson in England who is very much alive

and is planning to contest the will.

The louche and hedonistic Ric Lidell and his promiscuous half-sister travel

to Australia in a bid to get their hands on some of the money. Ric conceals

his identity from Melanie so he can use his satanic good looks to charm her.

However, Melanie’s former lover, the rich South African Peter van Heuren,

is unwilling to allow the highly-sexed young widow to be taken from

him and concocts a plan to discredit her other suitors.

Who will win Melanie’s heart and their way to her fortune?
