Publisher's Synopsis
There's more than one kind of love... Athene Forster is the most glamorous girl of her generation. She is also beautiful, spoilt, and out of control. Two years after her marriage to the steady young heir to the farming estate, the rumours have already begun again. Thirty-five years on, Suzanna Peacock is saddled with her dazzling mother's legacy, at odds with her father, and struggling in a stalled marriage. Only her shop, the Peacock Emporium, provides comfort, but the spectre of Athene and the shop itself combine to set in motion a tragic chain of events, forcing Suzanna and her family to finally deal with the past.
