Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The House of Defence It was already after eight in the evening, but here, in these high latitudes of Caithness, since the time of the year was within a fortnight of midsummer, the sun was still some way above the horizon, and shone full, with the cool brightness of the northern light, into the window on the seat of which Lady Maud Stratton was sitting. Lady Maud was waiting without impatience, for impatience was foreign to her habit of mind, but with a little touch of anxiety, since affection and all the cares that appertain to it were the constant guests of her heart, for her brother´s return. The room was of great extent, and looked larger than it really was because of its half-dismantled condition, and the big reflecting surface of its bare parquetted floor added to its apparent dimensions.
