Elizabeth (ePub)

Having finally accepted that her marriage was over after David at last had admitted to his long-standing affair with Christine. She knew that life's pattern had to change. Of course, she had been painfully aware that it had been going on for years. What she found difficult to reconcile was why had she allowed herself to suffer this torture for so long? It was obvious, she still loved him and like many partners hoped that it would work out.

Then of course there had been the terrible car crash, when she'd hit a pram with twins inside. One of them died and Elizabeth did all she could to help the mother Jean, get out of the sink estate that she was stuck in. With a violent ex-partner, a fisherman called Jack Big, she was constantly verbally and physically abused by him. Although Jean had confessed to her that she pushed the pram in front of her Porsche, in a fit of desperation with her life. She had felt nothing but pity for this lost soul. She had done everything she could to help her. The council with gentle persuasion had found her a small flat.

Jean then turned against Elizabeth. Retracting her story of the crash and accusing her of causing her son's death. By this time Jack was in prison for GBH to a fellow fisherman. He broke free and tracked Jean down. He must be obsessed with her! His one object must have been carnal lust. Jean knew that he would return one day and had made plans to try and deal with him, But where does this leave Elizabeth?
