A group of people in a country house after WWII.  One women starts feeling very guilty for something she did (or rather did not do) years before and wants to make amends.  How she decides to do this and other's opinions about it provide most of the plot.  Margery Sharp writes with that dry witty English humor which I love.  I was surprised by how much tension could be created just by interactions between people.
