A serial play in six episodes written for broadcasting by GILBERT DALTON
When Caroline Lambert , an international ballerina, has made 'positively her last appearance ' on the stage, she retires to Reed- wood, a house on an island in the River Severn somewhere between Gloucester and Worcester. Caroline's husband, a geologist, has disappeared in the Antarctic and she gives up her career because she feels she is losing touch with her children, Anne and Greville.
