It transpired that Laurence lived within a short distance of the Great Gatehouse, it was a wonderful and strange coincidence. But Vere's hopes of future meetings are clouded by her mother's concern and the distress of the Halbertson household. Why should her love for Laurence stir up such a whirlwind of trouble? And what is the secret of the deep mystery buried in the Halbertson history--a history of which no one dares speak...? It led to some troublesome questions.
