#1 – Katherine Wentworth
Katherine has married at nineteen and has had four years of happiness before her beloved Gerald dies and she is left to bring up a stepson, Simon, and her own little twins on a very inadequate income.
She has known what it is to be loved and cherished, and now that she has lost her Gerald, all she wants is freedom and independence to bring up Gerald’s children as he would have liked.
In the case of Simon the task is not easy, for an unexpected letter offers him a very different sort of life with wide horizons. What would Gerald have wanted for his son?

The home for centuries of his father’s family, Limbourne is a stately mansion with fine old trees, gardens – and a tense atmosphere…
