Book description
>Yet these are not stonyhearted snobs; they have accepted an
outsider - Nevil Rigden, product of a city slum. He is a friend to the
great Thomas Paget, husband to Paget s sister, and he stands high in the
Master s favour. Bemused by elegance, urbanity and intellect, we
discover with shock and then with horror the web of abomination being
spun, inexorably, fatally, within this charmed - and charming - circle.
No one can read this story unshaken.> >Yet these are not
