Four Tales - The Stoic Part III

In which a young man finds himself entangled in delicate matters of money and affection involving a lady writer and her daughter, while a keen-eyed solicitor smells a cunning game beneath the surface of old debts and settlements. The interplay of social graces and guarded suspicions unfolds with subtle humour and a quiet scrutiny of human foibles, as visits and inquiries reveal more than one might wish to confront.
