The Tortoise and the Hare

Elizabeth Jenkins

3.9/5 ( ratings)

The magnetic Evelyn Gresham, 52, is a barrister of considerable distinction. He has everything life could offer -- a gracious riverside house in Berkshire, a beautiful young wife, Imogen, who is devoted to him, and their 11-year-old son, a replica of his father.

Their nearest neighbor is Blanche Silcox, a plain, tweed-wearing woman of 50 who rides, shoots, fishes, and drives a Rolls Royce -- in every way the opposite of the domestic, loving Imogen.

Their world is conventional country life at its most idyllic: how can its gentle surfaces be disturbed?

Format: Paperback
