The Beads of Nemesis

About this book

Morag Grant had been holidaying in Greece when she met Pericles Holmes. Pericles, it appeared, was in urgent need of a wife — mainly to take care of his motherless two children — and when he proposed to Morag she at once accepted. Partly she was glad of the chance to get away from home and from her beautiful, spoilt stepsister Delia, who was accustomed to getting everything she wanted — especially from Morag! —and partly, she had to admit, because she had promptly fallen in love with Pericles. And she might in time have persuaded him to fall in love with her, had not Delia arrived in Greece herself, announcing that this time she wanted Morag's husband!
