When she meets Marcus, the very antithesis of Miles, they embark on a passionate and uneasy relationship.

Here are people drawn together in their tentative quests for permanence, tenderness and love in an era when there are no rules about the age, gender or the faithfulness of lovers. They story is told with the keen perception, the wit, and the emotional honesty that characterise all of Jessica Anderson's work.
