Poor cousin Elizabeth-- a woman cheated of her rightful share of the Meredith fortune, living like a servant in the great Mansion that should have been hers. Sshe knew how to smile at the arrogant master of the household and to hide her hatred of Alan, the spoiled favorite son, But she didn't know how she was going to get back what was rightfully hers, until Judith- William's beautiful pampered young wife, a woman too young and wild for a husband twice her age. She would befriend her and then betray her.
Women and revenge--a delightful read. Good on a rainy afternoon.
