The verdict on my two years' work rests with you, dear Reader, but at least you may be sure that I have only tried to show that those who sow the wind shall reap the whirlwind."

Frustrating AF. This is a sequel to Three Weeks and similarly a tragedy, but constructed on different generation two decades after the ending of the Three Weeks. This is more based on an actual Romeo & Juliet -probably a historical happening from Austria, but the structure of the story is unbalanced. Paul is more of a side character, the main pairing is on his son.

I haven't yet read the ending second sequel, but I was left angry that Glyn threw away promising characters so easily.
