Authorship not stated

You are Garda Thorne, showing a New England visitor around your family's fading Florida estate while your mother insists that confinement has become contentment. Evert Winthrop, scouting land to buy, asks harder questions than politeness allows — about money, about loyalty to a place that traps more than it shelters — while Dr. Kirby tries to chaperone you both by older rules. By the walk's end, two more local suitors have appeared, and Winthrop realizes the estate he came to inspect is already crowded with rivals for your company.
