About this book
On her twenty-second birthday, Susanna gains the freedom she has been waiting for and promptly surprises her former guardian. After a lavish celebration on the Italian island of Sampaolo, she announces that her yacht will take her to Venice. Her eventual destination is Craford, an English village where she hopes to meet her cousin. Henry Harland opens this novel of love and manners with a young woman determined to arrange her own affairs, even when those around her question her plans.
A later coastal walk with Anthony brings the history of Sampaolo into their conversation. Their teasing exchange turns on inherited titles, the English name Craford, and the difference between what each person knows and admits. Detailed gardens, sea views, and playful dialogue give the story its character.
