Description

Old age really must be creeping upon me at last. Susan Armstrong is enjoying a quiet evening at home with her husband Jed, but peace is fleeting. A call from Jed's cousin sets off a chain of events that brings young Amanda to their doorstep. Amanda's life is complicated by the disappearance of her pilot husband and the troubles of those around her - including her neighbours Larry Heriot and his sister Ruth, and the formidable Misses Pringle. As Susan navigates this chaos, she must also contend with her own family's difficulties. Despite the distressing confusion and misunderstandings that ensue, this novel ultimately brings a sense of resolution. First published in 1939 under a different title, Touch Not the Nettle reunites readers with characters from earlier works by Molly Clavering. This new edition includes an introduction by Elizabeth Crawford.
