Three women, each despairing in their own way, discover an organisation which appears to offer them hope. At first they are amused and intrigued by the ways of the group; they relax and are lulled into a false sense of well-being. But the meditation and encounter groups become more sinister, and as the novel builds to a gripping climax, we see that dramatic change is inevitable for each of them.

Kate Howard is no longer a struggling author. Far from it, she believes she leads a charmed life. A successful writer, for the past three years she has lived happily with her lover Stewart and her daughter Lucy in an old farmhouse in the beautiful, wild Auverge region of central France. When her son announces that he too intends to move to France, it would seem that life for Kate could not be sweeter. Then comes a bolt from the blue, a phone call from Kate's literary agent in London that threatens her whole way of life. But worse is to follow with the arrival of newcomers Mo and Tristram. Mo is a striking beauty and charming — when it suits her. As Kate discovers, she's one of those people who brings chaos to other people's lives, and Kate's is no exception.

Описание:
It is winter, 1901. The ancient facade of Cresswell Manor surveys a vast and rich estate — but the land has fallen into decay. Mortimer Cresswell is an old man now, and at his deathbed his family waits, patiently, to scrap over his fortune. Only Hannah, Mortimer's daughter, can see that the family has become consumed by private ambition, jealousy and greed. When Stanislas von Ehrlich, a self-made man of fortune, moves into the neighbourhood, the natural order of things changes, sparking a massive feud. And then von Ehrlich's headstrong, spoilt and beautiful daughter Esmeralda is drawn to a member of the Cresswell household, with the most far-reaching consequences. Before long, both families are set on a collision course so powerful it will completely alter their world.
