- Synopsis
- At age 21, widowed by the death of her equally young pilot husband, Christina returns to the decaying country estate Flambards. Left with no known family, two aged servants, an estate and grounds in ruins, and her beloved horses gone to the war effort, Christina sets out to restore the estate and gather together the remnants of Flambards, including her cousin Mark's illegitimate son, and a former servant, Dick, who had been Christina's childhood friend. Finding herself pregnant, Christina redoubles her efforts to make Flambards a viable estate. But when her cousin Mark, Flambards true owner, appears, returning from imprisonment as a POW in Turkey after being presumed dead, all of Christina's plans are in jeopardy, and she must decide which course her life will take. Recommended for grades 7 - 9

Not only are the plot and characters interesting, but the historical, cultural, and societal settings and events make the book interesting to read. It's best, though not necessary, to read first the first two books in the series, Flambards and The Edge of the Cloud
