Thwarted love

When Clare's all-but-fiance returns from WWI totally cynical and nasty, she settles into spinsterhood, poverty, and loneliness. But after his disappearance she returns to the country to raise his daughter, and eventually comes to understand the deception that destroyed her lover. An unusually dark novel for Stevenson, it is extremely enjoyable and gripping. Written and set a bit earlier than most of books, it's interesting to see her show some poverty instead of all of the upper class British nobs with servants.
