Sinopsis

Excerpt from Between the Devil and the Deep Sea

Sybil looked at him half curiously from under her black lashes. He did not look much like taking to sheep-farming, that slight, fair young fellow with his carefully trimmed hair and moustache, his diamond ring and well-cut suit that would never have suggested the clerk at a hundred a year. The idea of poverty in connection with him was new. To his being without money she was accustomed, but the suggestion that he should really be in need of it presented him to her under quite a new aspect. Yet he had no visible source of income. Perhaps he was poor.

And how long do you think it will take you to make your fortune?' The girl asked the question quietly, but the tinge of satire stung him.
