  The Wests had three daughters- Hyacinth, charming, creative and very beautiful; Hilda, practical and pretty; and Honoria, who was both vicious and resentful. Honoria's journey through life was to leave many scars, most inflicted upon those who should have been her nearest and dearest. Against a backdrop of middle-class respectability, Miss Honoria West wove her web of deceit and evil, spreading wickedness across Liverpool, inner Lancashire and into the dales of Yorkshire. Rich in character and action, Ruth Hamilton's gritty and masterful writing once again builds to a resounding crescendo, making this yet another unforgettable novel.
