Book Description
Kay Mathieson had returned to her Caribbean island home after seven home sick years full of hope - hope which was swiftly dashed when she arrived to find poverty and decay everywhere, her brother Tony a sick man, sunk in apathy, and the island dominated by the overbearing figure of Nick Coulson, who owned the only other sugar estate and was now trying, Kay soon discovered, to buy up the Mathieson concern. Kay was determined that this proud, arrogant man should not have his way, but how could she stop him? Tony was little or no use to her, and it would be virtually impossible for a girl to try and restore the family prosperity singlehanded. And there was also the problem of Melanie, Kay's beautiful widowed sister-in-law, who would not lift a finger to help her, but only insisted, "Why bother? Why try to fight Nick? You know he'll win - in the end."
