Dangerously charming, Palliser Wentwood has run away to England, leaving behind his farm in New Zealand, his beautiful wife Salome, his daughters, and his many creditors. Palliser is in search of a fortune, enough to restore the prosperity of farm and family. In an English manor live the Lovelaces: Hubert and Blanche, brother and sister, both amazingly tall and immensely fat, shy, and conventional. Engaged as a butler, and posing as a grieving widower, Palliser turns his charms on Blanche, teasing out laughter and beauty where before there was only timidity.

But will his deception succeed? Can he bring himself to ruin her? And, back in New Zealand, will Salome succumb to the gentle siege of Philip Butterworth, solicitor and suitor?

Wise and funny and sad, Imogen de la Bere's wonderful debut combines the pleasures of an old-fashioned novel with the delights of a thoroughly contemporary heroine and writing that crackles with wit and life.
