Summary
Sisters Mattie, Nell and Renie have escaped from their bullying father. Building new lives for themselves, the youngest sister, Renie, lives with the newly married Nell. Working as a waitress at the King's Head Hotel, she becomes increasingly harassed by the new assistant manager, Mr Judson. So, also eager to escape from Nell's unpleasant husband, Renie is delighted to be offered a new job in London. Making new friends she soon settles, yet worries about how Nell is treated by her husband. When tragedy strikes Nell and her family, Renie feels horrified and helpless, finding her only comfort in her growing friendship with the injured Gil. But can their relationship progress from just friendship? And how will the return of the threatening Judson affect their future?
