The glass house / Beatrice Colin.

Colin, Beatrice, (author.).

Summary:

"Scotland, 1912. Antonia McCulloch and her husband, Malcolm, have drifted apart; her burgeoning art career came to nothing; and when she looks in the mirror, she sees disappointment. But at least she will always have Balmarra, her family's grand Scottish estate, and its exquisite glass house, filled with exotic plants that can take her far away. Then her estranged brother's wife, Cicely Pick, arrives unannounced, with her young daughter and enough trunks to last the summer. What besides an inheritance dispute could have brought her glamorous sister-in-law all the way from India? As they get to know one another, Antonia realizes that Cicely has her own burdens to bear. A fragile friendship grows, but secrets and the truth threaten their uneasy balance - and the course of their entire lives."--Publisher website.
