"A tragic story with an unexpected and happy ending.  In one of her best novels, Ursula Bloom traces with moving skill and sympathy the fast-moving events in Fiona's young life.  Shattered by war and love for Jean, Camille's little gift became to this lonely hurt girl l'arbre d'amour.  But the ringless branches ceased to distress her when she met Charles Hardy again in Paris."
