Maid in Waiting
by John Galsworthy
This extensive family saga now passes into the life and love of Cherrells in the early 30s, marrying Forsytes to his cousins. The old English family, their only constant in an age of change and uncertainty, is the Condaford Grange, the homeland of their ancestors. This is especially valuable to young Elizabeth Cherryll or "Dinnie", whose family is everything to her. And when her brother faces extradition to South America, wrongly accused of murder, and her cousin faces a mentally unstable husband, Dinnie does her best to protect them from harm.
