The action is concentrated in a small English country house between the second world war?s first winter and the summer of 1940, after the fall of France. It is concerned with a man?s unswerving loyalty to an idea ~ his continuing love for his wife, whom he lost twenty years ago, and his daughter, who closely resembles her. The arrival of Richard Cannock at their home provokes a massive re-consideration of their situation. It should be borne in mind that Morgan was a considerable Franco-phile and would have been in turmoil at the German occupation of that country. There are parallels which can be drawn between the family circumstances and the European situation.* A NEAR FINE copy of the 1st edition, with jacket faults reducing it to VG* 1941-12-01.
