"Pam Harding had been jilted. Another girl, a girl she had never seen, had married the man she expected to marry. On a cruise to Rio de Janeiro, Pam met Jeff Maitland, the brother of the girl who had stolen her first love. Pam came to realise that, beyond a shadow of a doubt, Jeff Maitland was the one man in her life. At Havana, Phyllis Bevan boarded the boat and she wanted Jeff. Phyllis didn't care about fair play, or honor, or love, even." (from dust jacket, Sun Dial, 1942)
