A road accident leaves Sebastian Clifton’s future uncertain and intensifies the conflict between the Clifton family and the Martinezes. At Barrington Shipping, Emma Clifton’s attempt to modernise and protect the company brings her into a boardroom struggle with men willing to use political pressure, financial manipulation and personal scandal. The construction and launch of the MV Buckingham become tests of whether the family business can survive its enemies.

The novel also follows Giles Barrington’s political career, Jessica Clifton’s development as an artist and the continuing consequences of decisions made during the war. Post-war Britain is presented through changing corporate governance, class expectations and opportunities for women in business. Family loyalty remains a source of strength, but it also gives Don Pedro Martinez and Major Alex Fisher the leverage needed to threaten the Barrington inheritance.
