Description

Janey Harrison is only nineteen and, with the War behind her, she should be looking forward to happier times. But there is an emptiness inside her that Janey can't explain away. One thing she is sure of is her dislike of Sandy, the boy next door, now grown up and a successful doctor. She is convinced he is responsible for the tragic death of her lovely twin sister, Rose. Only as her career begins to take off does Janey come out of her dead sister's shadow. The men begin to flock around her as they did Rose - but to Janey's intense anger, it is Sandy who she cannot keep out of her thoughts...
