The Master of Heronsbridge

Feeling a fish out of water in the London home where her stepmother was remorsely driving her father up the ladder of success, Charlotte escaped to a post as a secretary-companion at Heronsbridge. Here was the kind of country life she loved. Her employer, Edwina Staverton, was a delightful personality, but towards the rest of the family, especially Mike, the son making stern efforts to get the place on its feet again, Charlotte had very mixed feelings. She had set out to prove her independence - and found something more lasting.
