"No man, woman or child on the island of Celador could swim and dive so well as Nina. And no girl or woman had been so framed by nature to attract the roving masculine eye. No one could forsee the future faced by this daughter of a Russian soldier of fortune and and English actress. Least of all did Nina dream what fate had in store for her. But on that afternoon her life had come to a turning point. Had she known it, destiny held everything for her except tedium and dullness, for wherever she was to go she was to be followed by the homage and cupidity of men." (from the jacket).
