Set in the 1930s, this is a delight from start to finish. Cassia is a very normal housewife, married to a parochial doctor when she inherits a mysterious half a million pounds. At first she’s determined not to spend it but then it makes sense to do up her husband’s practice offices and Cassia realises that she could do with a little doing up herself. Soon she’s whizzing around London in a fast car with a faster set and the money pours out as her husband and children languish in the country begging her to return. Her descent is gorgeously plotted and the mystery of where the money came from utterly compelling.
