Baby Boomer Fiction - No 2 in the Southhill Sagas, set in leafy Surrey to the south of London, although each book stands alone.

Lizzie is not what one might think of as a typical vicar’s wife. She doesn’t sing in the choir, help with cake sales or the Sunday School. She doesn’t get involved in the parish life at all, but holds down a senior position at a major bank.

Jacob and Lizzie have a good marriage, not exciting, but then few marriages are after twenty seven years. When Lizzie is selected to represent her branch at a banking conference up north she expects it to be interesting at best.

What she doesn’t expect is to fall in love.

She describes her life as having been lived in black and white thus far, and now she can see colour. But how can she grab her own happiness at the expense of others? How can she destroy her family for her own pleasure?

But, if she throws away this opportunity, it will almost certainly never come again.

A story of love, but above all the story of one woman’s moral dilemma
