The Obsession
Buy the book from:
After her father’s death leaves Pine Hurst burdened by debt, Beatrice Steel assumes control of the estate and of the younger sisters whose futures depend upon it. Her intelligence and determination keep the household functioning, but the need to dominate every relationship gradually turns responsibility into possession.
The arrival of Dr John Falconer challenges Beatrice’s authority and awakens desires she cannot manage as easily as accounts or servants. Love, jealousy and family secrecy intensify her fixation, threatening both the sisters she claims to protect and the social position she has sacrificed everything to preserve.
This book has also been published under the title A Sister’s Obsession.
