Description: April had always been a strange person, given to self-dramatising and delighting in wielding power over others, even in hurting them. Lucinda, her half-sister, sometimes wondered if it were not the knowledge that she had always loved Simon Hammet that had induced April to marry him herself and cause Lucinda to leave home and try to forget him. Now paralysed by polio and confirmed to a wheelchair, April seemed to have taken a cruel pleasure in begging Cindy to come home again and live with her and Simon--just to watch the two of them, trying to conceal their feelings for each other and powerless to do anything about it. Tragedy was bound to come sooner or later, from such a perilous situation--which of the three would it strike?
