Description
Dorothea Balfour felt rather like a child, lost and bewildered. She was staring out of the window at her neighbours, who had always been a source of fascination. After her sister Belle's sudden death, Dorothea found herself with newfound freedom to explore this connection. Her calm intelligence and gentle nature allowed her to navigate domestic challenges and romantic difficulties, as well as aid those in need. As she became enmeshed in the lives of Mrs Lenox and her five children, Dorothea discovered a world of drama and surprise. From rescuing an endangered child to encountering Belle's long-lost husband, her life was filled with unexpected events. Molly Clavering's tale is one of cheerfulness and amusement, set vividly in postwar Edinburgh. This new edition includes an introduction by Elizabeth Crawford, offering additional insight into the author's work.
