Synopsis
Excerpt from The Road to Mecca
Ellie brewster Opened her eyes to the August sunlight with a sense of something important hav ing happened. The first thing that she remem bered was that it was Sunday morning. The next, that she was engaged to be married.
She rose and, going to the window, stood looking down on the shady yard beneath. It had rained in the night, and the heavy odour of wet day-lilies filled the air. She hated that smell. But then, she hated most things with which she had ever come in contact.
