长句分析

Incarcerated in Loch Leven Castle in the middle of a deep, cold lake, she unleashed her seductive charm on her jailer, one of the usually hard-bitten Douglas clan who melted in adoration.

结构剖析：这个句子是一个简单句。

句子的主干是：she unleashed her seductive charm on her jailer。主语是：she，谓语是unleashed her seductive charm on her jailer。剩下的可以分为两个部分：

第一是：incarcerated in Loch Leven Castle in the middle of a deep, cold lake，这是过去分词短语作时间状语，可以将之改为时间状语——when she was incarcerated in Loch Leven Castle in the middle of a deep, cold lake。这个过去分词中的in the middle of a deep, cold lake是介词短语作后置定语。

第二是：one of the usually hard-bitten Douglas clan who melted in adoration这是一个代词短语作同位语，做jailer这个名词的同位语，说明这个看守监狱的人的身份（Douglas clan）和性格特点（hard-bitten）以及行为（melted in adoration）。

进而，在这个同位语中含有一个定语从句：who melted in adoration。这个定语从句修饰不定代词one。One是先行词，先行词是one这个不定代词，它在主句中做主语，关系代词是who，不能用that。不要误认为这个定语从句修饰clan。它是在介词短语of the usually hard-bitten Douglas clan中，这个介词短语来修饰不定代词one。
