Fremlin, Celia

  • The Jealous One

    £9.99

    ‘The Jealous One’, Celia Fremlin’s fifth novel, opens on its protagonist Rosamund as she wakes from a mid-morning nap to find, to her delight, that she is running a temperature. Surely that explains her blinding headache, and even the weird, delirious dream in which she had murdered her overly seductive neighbour, Lindy? A great relief, then, to find this was merely the work of a fevered imagination. Until her husband exclaims, ‘Rosamund! Have you any idea what’s happened to Lindy? She’s disappeared’.

Now a seaside holiday for Mildred’s half-sister Isabel and her family seems to be the venue for Uncle Paul’s revenge. Mildred arrives at a lonely cottage near to Isabel’s caravan site, and Isabel’s urgent summons to her sister Meg brings the three women together to play out a drama of fear and suspicion, betrayal and revenge.
