| Back | The Squire's Daughter |
 |
Fliss, the
squire's eldest daughter, lives for her family, who
depend on her to sort out their problems. Her life
changes when Sir James Singleton asks her and her sister
Melissa to visit his aunt in Bath. Fliss meets many new
people there, including Alice Tryon, with whom her
brother Richard is in love, and Alice's uncle, Lord Nick
Bonsor, a notorious rake and Sir James's friend. Fliss
begins to see James differently but just as it seems as
if she might find happiness, her mother dies and she and
Melissa return home. But Melissa's stay in Bath has been
eventful too, and her misbehaviour not only compels Fliss
to visit London in search of a solution, but also
threatens to drive a wedge between Fliss and James.
