One is Hester, a young relation with a personality as strong as Catherine's, and as determined to find a role for herself. The other is Edward, Catherine's favourite, whom she treats like a son. Conflict between young and old is
inevitable, and in its depiction of the complex relationships that develop between the three principal characters, Publishing October 2003 (exact date?)
