THE KEYS OF THE CASTLE

Quick about face, first Sir Anthony Dmitri Markham, hated Judith Lister on sight. Then he quickly reversed his actions. When he didn't seem to be able to make up for his rudeness, and get Judith to stay at the castle, he later invited her to be his grandmother's compainion. Judith took the job, but Dmitri soon blew hot, then cold until almost the last chapter of the book. From the back of the book: 'When Judith was only partially recovered from a bout of the 'flu, her friend Ann took her to convalensce at her godmother's fascination castle on the Northumbrian coast. But her convalescence was cut short by the chilly welcome of Lady Markham's grandson.'
