'Very much the art of story-telling that would be at home in the woman's magazine.' Times Literary Supplement

Laura Franklin bitterly resented the arrival of her younger sister Shirley, an enchanting baby loved by all the family. But Laura's emotions towards her sister changed dramatically one night, when she vowed to protect
her with all her strength and love. While Shirley longs for freedom and romance, Laura has to learn that loving can never be a one-sided affair, and the burden of her love for her sister has a dramatic effect on both their lives.
Based on Agatha Christie's metaphor 'Sometimes you haven't the right currency. And then someone else has to pay...'

A story of consequences when love turns into obsession..

About the Author

Agatha Christie is known throughout the world as the Queen of Crime. It was her sharp observations of the ambitions that drive people, their relationships and the conflicts that erupt between them that added life and sparkle to her ingenious detective stories. When, writing as Mary Westmacott, she turned this understanding of human nature away from the crime genre, she created bittersweet novels, love stories with a jagged edge, as compelling and memorable as the best of her work.
