Book
Chasing Cassandra
First published 2020
Railway and engineering magnate Tom Severin approaches emotion as a problem that can be solved through acquisition and contract. His determination to marry Cassandra Ravenel forces him to recognize that affection cannot be negotiated like a business transaction and that his own moral limits are not fixed.
Tom’s wealth and influence reflect the infrastructure fortunes created by Victorian railways, construction and metropolitan development. Cassandra’s insistence on emotional reciprocity tests the social power of a self-made industrialist whose money can buy access but not consent.
