Description
Caroline Proust's husband may have died, but her immorality never did. The resident adulteress of her small town called Dewbrook, she began to hatch a plot that involved the seduction of a wealthy neighbour, Harold Wells, after the threat of losing everything she had came to her door. Although he had always been against the idea of marriage, she believed that she could seduce anyone, and he was even kind enough to welcome her into his home with no questions. The plan was supposed to be easy, but the arrival of Stephen Rochester, who had just made a fortune through gambling, into her neighbourhood, changed it completely. Trying to avoid the suspicion of Harold's sister, Rosemary, having to deal with the righteousness of Stephen's wife, Mildred, as well as working hard to protect her reputation from falling apart at the seams, she starts to realise that her life will never be what it once was and that her lies may swallow her whole.
