Summary
On travelling to Italy with her friend Caroline Abbott, the impulsive English widow Lilia Herriton outrages her dead husband's family by meeting and quickly becoming engaged to a dashing but deeply unsuitable Italian man twelve years her junior. Infuriated, her ex-brother-in-law Phillip sets off from England to her new home in TUscan town of Monteriano - but finding himself unable to persuade Lilia to leave her handsome, uncouth new lover, returns to England without her. When Lilia's marrage leads to sudden tragedy, how -ever, Phillip and Caroline feel compelled to return once more to Italy, where they find they are forced to examine their own lives. -- back cover
