Séparation de coeur
Le juge Guy Stockdale a pris sa décision. À soixante et un ans, après quarante années d'un mariage paisible, il quitte Laura, pour épouser Merrion, jeune avocate de trente ans, depuis longtemps sa maîtresse. Hill Cottage sera vendu et le patrimoine familial dispersé. Le prix ? Affronter le regard de ses proches. Aux yeux de tous, Guy doit endosser la faute d'avoir brisé l'harmonie d'une famille jusqu'alors unie. Car si pour lui c'est l'amour retrouvé, pour sa femme et ses enfants c'est le bonheur perdu et de nombreuses souffrances ravivées. Personne ne sortira indemne de cette épreuve, il le sait.
