About the book
"Trust me, Lisa. It will be all right." Lisa could have laughed. How could she trust Bryn when he had taken advantage of her from the start? They had met outside the church where the man she loved had married Bryn's girl friend. Bryn had suggested a drink together to ease their sorrows. Lisa had recklessly agreed. Why not? It had seemed entirely appropriate that they should console each other. But Lisa hadn't expected to end up in Libya married to Bryn. And she wasn't going to remain married to a man who didn't really love her!
