When Hugh Salinger announced the news of his disastrously ill-assorted marriage with Laura Burton, his family expected him to bring home an adventuress. It might, in the end, have been better, for Laura, undeniably beautiful, simple & selfless in her love for Hugh, was not of the stuff facile imitators are made from, & her very singlemindedness prevented her from shedding her carefully taught gentility.
One of the four "contemporary" novels Georgette Heyer had suppressed.
