Between the amorous antique dealer Humphrey and his good-looking nephew James glides the magnificent Leonora, delicate as porcelain, cool as ice. Can she keep James in her thrall? Or will he be taken from her by a lover, like Phoebe . . . or Ned, the wicked American?
'A highly distinctive and - ultimately - charitable novel' Financial Times
'Faultless' Guardian
'Her Characters are all meticulously impaled on the delicate pins of a wit that is as scrupulous as it is deadly' Observer
'A coldly funny book' Sunday Telegraph
'Highly distinctive . . . the critics who have recently insisted on Miss Pym's too long neglected gifts have not been wrong' Financial Times
