Summary:  "Teenaged Will Jameson has a temperament of iron, standing up to men twice his age when he takes over the Jameson lumber company after his father’s death. His younger brother, Owen, is sensitive, literary, and fanciful. But when Will dies suddenly and Owen’s beloved Lula rejects him, Owen’s deeper character comes to light: joining the army in the hope of getting himself killed, instead Owen returns home a decorated war hero. Then he falls in love with the beautiful, childlike Camellia – the wife of Will’s old friend Reggie Glidden – and soon Owen and Camellia find themselves watched on all sides, caught in the teeth of an entire town’s gossip and hypocrisy. Inexorably, they are pulled into a chain of events that will end with death, disappearance, and a sensational trial."--Publisher.
