Publisher's Synopsis
Sometimes hiding from the truth can cause more trouble than facing it . . .
When Marie Masters' once-loving husband turns to drink and gambling she is distraught. Then she discovers that the father he claimed was dead is living in squalor in a house in the woods. Then, just as it seems they will get their life back in order, Ivor disappears, rather than reveal the whole truth of his background to Marie - and then he meets Effie, and his troubles really begin.
