It was her sharp observations of the ambitions that drive people, their relationships and the conflicts that erupt between them, that added life and sparkle to her ingenious detective novels. When she turned this understanding of human nature away from the crime genre, writing anonymously as Mary Westmacott to prove that her writing could sell on its merit rather than her fame alone, she created bittersweet novels, love stories with a jagged edge, as compelling and memorable as the best of her work.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Rose and the Yew Tree: A working-class man’s attempts to elevate himself in life lead to unforeseen circumstances…\u003cbr\u003e\nA Daughter’s a Daughter: A mother rejects personal happiness to look after her daughter, but later regrets the decision…\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Burden: A girl precipitates a disastrous marriage by controlling the life of her younger sibling…\u003cbr\u003e\n      Review      \u003cbr\u003e\n‘Miss Westmacott writes crisply and is always lucid.
