It is against this tight, cold background that Emma meets Andrew Farlane, an ex-actor, with whom she falls unwillingly and blindly in love.This is a contemporary novel -- the conflict of a gentle personality behaving entirely out of character when overwhelmed by passion that threatens the security of her marriage.
