About the book
It was only after Lucy and Stephen Charteris had died that their daughter Faith learned that she was not their real daughter at all, but adopted - more, that both her real parents were still living, although they had long ago parted and each had remarried. Her father, it seemed, was in New Zealand, and Faith could not rest until she had gone there in search of him. But the real problem, she soon realised, was her father's grim stepson Gareth Morgan, who could not forget the old family scandal that had almost ruined his own parents life - and who could not forgive Faith for it either!
