The story, set in 1926, involves a wealthy business family; the son marries an attractive woman from old money who turns out to be very unpleasant. Her plain sister comes to help in the house and falls for her brother-in-law. Lots of infidelity later there is a happy ending! Too much swooning and manners for my liking, but distracting. ( ) Back Cover Blurb: It is 1926, the year of the General Strike. Joe's bride Elaine is unsuited to life near the Tyneside town of Fellburn and only her sister Betty can make Elaine's pregnancy bearable. But will her presence serve to widen the rift between husband and wife, or will it help create a reconciliation. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
The day Joe Remington brought his new bride to Fell Rise, he had already sensed she might not settle easily into his home just outside the Tyneside town of Fellburn. Making plain her disapproval of Joe's familiarity with the servants, questioning the donation of food to striking miners' families - these objections and more soon rubbed Joe and the local people up the wrong way, a problem he could easily have done without. For this was 1926, the year of the General Strike, the effects of which would nowhere be felt more acutely than in this heartland of the North-East. Then when Elaine became pregnant, she saw it as a disaster and only the willingness of her unmarried sister Betty to come an see her through her confinement made it bearable. But in the long run, would Betty's presence only serve to widen the rift between husband and wife, or would she help to bring about a reconciliation?
