Description: Zannah and Adrian are planning to marry in May, the loveliest time of the year. Zannah has always wanted a beautiful, traditional wedding and feels she missed out the first time round when she married Cal, father of her daughter Isis. Now that tense moment &#x2013; one that happens before every wedding &#x2013; has come: the two families are to meet. Will the gathering go smoothly? Will they like each other &#x2013; the slightly bohemian Gratrixes from Cheshire and the wealthy Ashtons from the Home Counties? The meeting will take place on neutral territory, at a lunch party in the home of Zannah&#x2019;s Great-aunt Charlotte in London. A mood of festivity and celebration prevails. Adrian&#x2019;s stepfather, Gray Ashton, arrives a little late by which time everyone has assembled. When he enters the room, Joss Gratrix, Zannah&#x2019;s mother, turns frighteningly pale and hurries away from the party, leaving Zannah and her sister to wonder why on earth this man should have such a devastating effect on their mother?
