Ten years after the events of 'Invitation to the Waltz', we find Olivia Curtis, thinner and sadder after a failed marriage. A chance encounter on a train with a man who captivated her in her adolescence leads her to a forbidden love affair, full of secret encounters and brief calls in anonymous hotel rooms. This novel, ahead of its time, shocked readers with its honesty and passionate portrayal of clandestine love.
