About this ebook

When Maxwell Drewitt returns to Kincorth, he finds that his carefully laid plans have been upset by a new struggle for control, and the family estate is no longer easy to seize. Brian, the younger Drewitt, has taken charge and is fighting to preserve the property against mortgages, missing papers, and the ambitions of those who would see it lost. At the center of the conflict is a family divided by duty and resentment: Brian works himself to exhaustion to save Kincorth and care for his failing father, while Harold drifts toward drink, bad company, and ruin. As Mr. Pryor tries to mediate, the truth of Mr. Drewitt's declining health becomes impossible to ignore, devastating Geraldine and deepening the sense of approaching loss. Brian's lonely devotion earns respect from the local people, even as his own household questions him. Meanwhile, Harold's reckless life leads him from a Dublin hearing to humiliating encounters that expose the collapse of his reputation. Torn between responsibility and self-indulgence, the Drewitts face the painful cost of pride, denial, and a family legacy slipping toward crisis. This edition has been fully restored with modern typesetting, custom cover design.
