First edition in very good condition for its age. Bump to head of book spine. Tanning to pages. Foxing to the first and last few pages and page edges. The dust jacket is grubby, internally repaired but complete dustjacket and still shows the price. SYNOPSIS: “This colourful novel has its setting at St Eunice, an island in the Caribbean area. Thomas Medway, the Governor, owes his position partly to his own merits and partly to the influence of his wife’s father, an English peer. Although ambitious for her husband, Elizabeth finds life dull and unsatisfactory and she finds herself involved in an affair with her handsome cousin, one of the slave proprietors, who detests Medway because he is anxious to improve the lot of the slaves.” IN STOCK FOR IMMEDIATE DESPATCH
