Summary

"Describes Margaret Marsh's coming of age one summer between the world wars. Caught in the backwash of a fervently religious father, a bitterly nostalgic mother and the bawdy jokes of her nanny, Margaret escapes by roaming the meadows and beaches of coastal England. When she meets two of her mother's childhood friends ... [they] expose her to a side of Mrs. Marsh that [Margaret] has never known. But as the stories build, so do long buried tensions and passions and Margaret's world hurtles towards a shattering moment of truth."--Cover flap
