About this book
Jenny Bertram's delight on inheriting her great-aunt's cottage is somewhat dimmed by the hostility of her next-door neighbour, Dr Geoffrey Alderney. The warm-hearted and lively Jenny is then suddenly called upon to perform a number of selfless acts when an old scandal involving Great-Aunt Henrietta comes to light and she becomes the innocent victim of malicious incidents. Is the culprit Wanda Petrie, the cool and sophisticated pharmacist, or Mrs Wantage, Geoffrey Alderney's antagonistic house-keeper - or even the embittered young doctor himself? A good neighbour is a pearl indeed, as both Dr Alderney and Jenny begin to realize.
