Helpful Score: 1

Story is greatly focused on Stuart and Edie's relationship and his wooing of her. Edie is traumatized by a rape she keeps secret from him, making it challenging for Stuart to figure out why she is so opposed to a reconciliation. Stuart was tender and patient, and also deeply affected by his own trauma in Africa, including the death of his valet. My biggest disappointment is with the lateness in which the couple's consummation takes place along with other issue resolutions culminating in a rushed and anti-climatic ending. Gotta love the overall tenderness throughout the story, though. 3.5 stars.
