AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Molly Blake is a woman with a gruesome secret from which she cannot escape. A secret which lies buried beneath her husband's camellias – and the fear of its discovery will drive her to madness.

'John and Molly Blake are a quiet suburban couple leading a quiet suburban life. It comes as a shock to John when their happy relationship suddenly begins to break down. Why has a certain waspishness crept into Molly's voice? Why is she withdrawing from him?'
