<p>To many, the enduring image of Princess Marina was her annual appearance at Wimbledon, where she indulged her passion for tennis and always presented one of the winner's trophies before a rapturous crowd. Her dark features confirmed in most people's minds her Greek origins - she and Prince Philip were cousins. Her marriage to George, Duke of Kent, the rakish younger brother to Edward VIII and George VI, ended in tragedy when her husband was killed in a World War II air crash. How she rebuilt her life, brought up the present Duke of Kent, Princess Alexandra and Prince Michael, and added style and elegance to a royal house that had developed a reputation for dowdiness, is all past of Sophia Watson's biography. With access to hitherto untapped sources Marina is a welcome antidote to the anni horribili of the House of Windsor today.</p>

'This girl can write.' - LITERARY REVIEW 'Sophia Watson interprets her heroine's problems with intelligence and skill.' - DAILY TELEGRAPH Dulcie Stanley is twenty-one when she comes south to London. At first she is seduced by the opportunities on offer, but she soon finds that there are serious choices to be made. Dulcie's aunt, Carol, and Julia, her godmother, seem to have made their decisions already. Carol is a successful businesswoman with an overly jealous husband. When she is given the opportunity to justify his fears, Carol realises that she, as much as her niece, could change her life. Julia, rich and spoiled, does just as she chooses behind her husband's back. Then she too finds that she cannot take her way of life for granted.
