Secrecy, adultery, jealousy and guilt play their part in the story of Finuala, a Catholic girl who breaks all the rules. Played out against the backdrop of Apartheid South Africa, she covers her tracks successfully until her death, when she leaves behind a cache of letters, from which, to the amazement of her family, comes this true story. A) Female fulfilment, with a bit of luck, and B) getting all one needs: a story of adultery and jealousy. C) Breaking the rules but hedging ones bets. D) Mistakes, and almost getting away with them, then: E) the reckoning and counting the cost: F) Tarnished love, propped up as best one can G) along with an awful lot of Latin, Afrikaans and guilt: H) a thought -provoking read, right to the bitter end.
