Dressed in the subdued shades of mourning, she and her son Johnnie appear almost misplaced amidst Brighton’s color and laughter. Years have passed since she chose to leave Natterley, not merely to be nearer to George’s office, as she had written, but to create distance between her heart and its unresolved past. Proximity to work was the shield; emotional survival was the cause. Her life has…-

Chapter I — Frivolous Cupid
Chapter I begins with Harry Sterling’s return to Natterley, where he is no longer the gangly schoolboy the townspeople once knew. He now moves with the quiet confidence of youth on the cusp of adulthood. A cigarette rests between his lips—not smoked with bravado, but with the casualness of someone aware of the image he projects. At the lawn-tennis club, reactions to him vary. Young men nod in quiet approval, while younger boys look on with admiration laced with envy. The girls—older and…-
