Sylvia Thorpe: Torrington Chase

1968 is the publication date for Torrington Chase by Sylvia Thorpe. A regency romance, it is about Perdita, the governess at Torrington Chase who is told not to have any contact with Jason Hawkesworth, a relative with a secret of his own!

Allan Kass illustrates this remote estate on a cliff top in a desolate land. Our couple embrace on a hillside and seem to be in love with each other. The heroine's striped dress and matching bonnet are pretty. This picture embodies the wildness of the countryside.
