Description

"People get what they want if they want it enough, but they can't control the price they have to pay." That's the hard truth at the heart of this intricately plotted page-turner from A. E. W. Mason. Despite their lingering ardor, a pair of star-crossed lovers are forced to betray one another again and again when they find themselves mired in a series of missed chances and miscommunications.
