Description
Like his father before him, Orlando Manners chooses a bride whose sudden arrival totally disrupts the lives of those closest to him.
Lindy, unashamedly viewing her marriage as a means to an end, is quite different from the other women who feel they have a claim on him his godmother Victoria, who brought him up following his mother's tragic death; and his childhood friend Rose, daughter of his cook and gamekeeper who, unknown to Orlando, has always worshipped him.
But more than anyone, Lindy must contend with the ghost of Orlando's mother, Daisy, a wayward and destructive beauty whose hold over them all is hidden in the pages of a Visitors' Book . . .
