Now, Gina is married to the exquisitely tasteful Fergus and lives in stylish perfection at High Place. Laurence is married to down-to-earth Hilary and lives in the Bee House, a home and hotel. Then, with elegant disdain, Fergus announces that he is leaving Gina and their teenage daughter.

And as Laurence gives comfort, so his own marriage and the stability of his children edges towards destruction ...

Media Reviews
Trollope at her best * Spectator *
Undeniably warmhearted and socially topical...above all a novel filled with good advice * Observer *
Truly, I couldn't put it down. I'm telling you, Trollope is a significant chronicler * Daily Mail *
Trollope has a keen ear for the yelps of distress, as lives are sliced in half by shabby betrayal... A book that is as enjoyable as it is thoughtful * The Times *
Trollope's bleakest and most satisfying work to date * The Sunday Times *
