4.0 out of 5 stars For Trollope fans not the feint-hearted, 4 May 2009
The novel starts when Harry Clavering's intended decides to jilt him for a Duke. Two years later, when the Duke is dead having left her a title and a fortune, she returns to England, but Harry is already betrothed to his employer's daughter.

The book revolves around his dilemma as to whether he should stay with his first love or remain with his betrothed.

A longish book with little story and lots of comment - both on Society's mores and Harry's morals. Nonetheless interesting but not the rollicking good tale that The Vicar of Bullhampton or other Trollope novels are. I had to plough through it rather. Worth it for a Trollope fan but not a good Trollope novel to kick off with.
