In 1851 the fortunes of the Morland family are more buoyant than they have been for years. Morland Place is recovering under Benjamin's steady hands - happy at last with Sibella. Charlotte, now Duchess of Southport, is shortly to give birth to hersecond child and on the point of opening her modern hospital for the poor.
It continues the Morland saga and manages to address the various strands of the story without the reader needing to refer to the family tree.
good exiting read and with pretty accurate historical backgroundd too.
