It s the early 1920s and Kate is happily married to Dr.Rodney Prince, who has willingly accepted her illegitmate daughter Annie as the eldest child of their household. But there is a serpent in every Eden, and spiteful rumours about Kate and Annie's past abound...reviving memories of the poverty and indignities they suffered in the Fifteen Streets district they have so recently left behind them. Annie is torn between the comfortable middle-class existence offered by Brian Stannard and the uncertain prospects of Terence Macbane, a brillant mathematcian, who comes from the underprivileged world that Annie knew as a child. Like Kate Hannigan, Annie must find the strength and maturity that will enable her to overcome the troubles that threaten to engulf her... 2001. 350 pages. PB in good+condition.
