'I was ten years old when I first saw the inheritance and twenty years old when I saw Janna Roslyn, but my reaction to both was identical. I wanted them.'
The speaker is Mark Castallack. The longed-for inheritance is Penmarric, a large house decaying on the cliffs of Cornwall, and Janna Roslyn is the farmer's widow who is to change Mark's life - for the worse . . .
From the Victorian era to the Second World War, this story of a man and his two families reflects the unforgiving conflicts generated by a house divided against itself. Obsession, tragedy, love and triumph are all electrifyingly combined in the novel that made Susan Howatch an international bestselling author.
