A story of country wealth and tennis matches, and a mother who flirts with her daughter's young admirers.
Reflecting the Midlands in the 1920s, the story bears comparison in theme and atmosphere to Bates's semi-autobiographical novel Love for Lydia.
In Woman's Own (April 27, 1963), The Fabulous Mrs V (1964).
