Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Dr John Falconer, recently appointed partner to old Cornwallis, is invited to a garden party at Pine Hurst, seat of the local lord of the manor. It is an occasion arranged to celebrate the twenty-first birthday of Simon Steel's eldest daughter Beatrice, who introduces him to her sisters, Marion, Helen and the youngest, seventeen-year-old Rosie, who takes it upon herself to conduct him around the extensive grounds of the house. In a moment of indiscretion, she lets slip her true feelings about Beatrice who, she says, has always been over-possessive about Pine Hurst and, since the death of their mother, has become insufferably dominating. At that time, even though she was then only in her 'teens, Beatrie had taken over the running of the house and now she ruled her father and the servants with an iron hand. What was particularly frustrating for Rosie, who could see no end to the tyranny, was that no man had so far shown any willingness to marry Beatrice and thus deflect her from the object of her passion. As for Beatrice herself, her wanderings about the house and grounds convince her that no-one could ever take the place of her most prized possession - although she constantly. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Miss Beatrice Penrose-Steel celebrates her twenty-first birthday in style with her family gathered around her. As the eldest of four daughters, Beatrice assumed control of the house after her mother's death. While the three youngest plan to escape by any means, including marriage, Beatrice enjoys directing the servants, dusting imaginary spots of dirt, and trying to please her beloved father, Simon. When Simon is killed in a freak accident, the ugly truth about his financial condition surfaces: he is heavily in debt to gamblers and moneylenders who hold a mortgage on the house. Beatrice, devastated by the revelations, ruthlessly destroys her family's remaining happiness in an effort to maintain her grip on the house and on appearances. Her whole life is built on one obsession after another, but even her family is shocked by the lengths to which she will go to get her way. DJ; Heavy; Owner's Name inside. 317 pages.
