Dulcie Hurst lives by duty, patience, and faith, even when her heart is pulled toward George Kennedy, the man she loved and lost ten years ago. In London, while she waits anxiously for her unreliable brother Norman, a sudden accident shatters the uneasy routine: Norman slips beneath a moving bus and is brought home with a serious head injury and a broken arm, leaving Dulcie to nurse his pain and bitter complaints with quiet endurance. Her burden only grows when Kennedy's unexpected letter arrives from Australia. He is wealthy now and asks Norman to manage his property at Apthorne, promising a generous salary and funds for improvements. The appointment offers Norman independence and opportunity, but also exposes his faults. Restless, self-indulgent, and morally careless, he soon squanders trust, alienates neighbors, and turns to risky money-market speculation, even using estate funds for his own schemes. As Dulcie settles into country life at Ivy Cottage and seeks strength in church, she watches with mounting тревога as Norman's charm gives way to irresponsibility, pride, and danger. This edition has been fully restored with modern typesetting, custom cover design.
