The Children of Wilton Chase

Punished for disobedience, you were forbidden by Miss Nelson to ride to the station when Basil and Eric came home. She is only the governess, and I am fourteen; I will not let her decide whether I meet my brothers. You step into this one-chapter preview with Marjorie Wilton at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. Miss Nelson's hand neared the latch as the homecoming became a test of the honour Father had praised. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
