Bel is the orphan daughter of an Army colonel, brought up in an English village and flung into the whirl of London life to earn a hard living as a secretary. It is the very human story of a young girl who is shy and sensitive and so innocent that she is unaware of the pitfalls that surround her. In the second part of the book the scene changes from London to a fishing hotel in Scotland, where Bel has gone for a much-needed holiday. There she learns that it's not much good trying to escape from the 'right man'!
