Fostered out at birth, Theresa Marlow, highwayman's daughter, grew up on a farm in the tiny hamlet of Bognor. The town expanded rapidly and turned into a fashionable and elegant resort to rival Brighton. Against this fast-changing background, Theresa rose from linen maid to lady of fashion.

The three men she loved influenced her future Andrew, the tavern-boy who went to sea; David, the young officer with whom she liaises on the beach; and Jonathan, landowner and compulsive gambler. It was Theresa's obsessional passion for Jonathan that set her on a path more terrible and violent than anything she could have dreamed possible." Good Reads "A pseudonym used by Barbara Øvstedal.
