They were in the palm court of the Carlton, and the remainder of the guests, mercifully occupied with their cocktails and gossip, were apparently unaware of Luke’s bad manners.
She stood apart with the young man who was her only relation, and no stranger seeing them would imagine them to be brother and sister. Rex was red haired, weak chinned, a fretful young man with a nervous trick of adjusting his dress tie every few minutes.
