The house of conflict

When Pauline Avon went as secretary to Mr. Cedar, she thought she had found the perfect job. She was entranced by the beautiful house, the quiet Dartmoor countryside, the friendliness of the family - and she soon realised that she and Mark, the eldest son, were drawn together in something more than mere friendship. But she sensed that under the surface, something was wrong. Old Mr. Cedar was writing the biography of his son John, killed twenty years before in a climbing accident, and the memory of his dead son obsessed him so much that his other children, shut out of his affections, had grown up resenting their father, and each other. Then, after a foolish misunderstanding, Mark began to suspect that Pauline and Derek, his younger brother, were having an affair - and Derek, for reasons of his own, was content to let him go on believing it. Suddenly Pauline's happiness turned to despair.
