A Place of Secrets
“Tonight she’d agreed to go camping and she didn’t think Claire would be that pleased. She was weary. In some ways she thought she’d be better off going away. She’d been at Starbrough Hall two weeks, two of her precious three weeks of working holiday, and she ought to decide what she was going to do with the rest. It was difficult to see how she could take a proper holiday as such. She could pass the time in Greenwich, she supposed. There was research she could do from there, then make arrangeme...nts for the books and the scientific instruments to be packed up and brought to the office. Yet part of her felt bad at the idea of leaving Summer when she was so troubled. And there were so many ends left untied—the business of Tamsin Lovall, for one.
