'The mistress of the skilfully spun suspense novel...her quiet, unemphatic style of narrative makes the story a compelling read' - SUNDAY TELEGRAPH 'Yorke has an extraordinary feel for the passions that lurk beneath unremarkable facades' - SUNDAY TIMES When her goddaughter is arrested during an anti-roads protest, Isabel Vernon is startled to discover that the fair-haired child of her memory has become a shaven-headed environmentalist and that Isabel herself is now regarded as Emily Frost's next of kin. Emily, released on bail to the Vernons, takes up a job as home help to a local family and forms an instant attachment to Rowena, the four-year-old girl in her charge. Emily's presence in the Vernons' house proves troubling, and is deepening the profound tensions within Isabel's marriage when the arrival of someone else threatens the safety of both Emily and the child, Rowena.
