The Dying of the Light (Paperback)

Diane Cooke was "born with the century" and came of age just after WWI. The daughter of landed Southern gentry, she knew early that her parents had only one asset, besides her: their stately house, Saratoga. But the Cookes were too land-poor to keep the house up, and without a rich husband, Diana could well lose the mansion that had defined her family for five generations. Like an old-fashioned novel-turned-movie.
