AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Light British romance. Elma Morns rescues Clarence Percival, heir to the Manor, from death in a fierce snowstorm on the West Cornwall coast. They are in love but his sister's determination that he should marry his cousin, and Elma's father's refusal to consent prevent them - until a terrible storm on Christmas Eve, the destruction of a lighthouse light, and a mad rescue attempt in the ocean waves and a chance reunion clear the way. Pleasant. (PB)
