''Very moving when it is not being exceedingly funny'' Anita Brookner
''Brilliant'' Sunday Times
Eliza Peabody is one of those dangerously blameless women who believes she has God in her pocket. She is too enthusiastic; she talks too much. Her concern for the welfare of her wealthySouth London neighbours extends to ingenuous well-meaning notes of unsolicited adviceunder the door.
It is just such a one-sided correspondence that heralds Eliza''s undoing. Did her letter have something to do with the woman''s abrupt disappearance ? Why will no-one else speak of her? And why the watchful, pitying looks and embarassment that now greet her?
