The Scars Shall Fade

When Trina Meriton first went to work in Andrew Dalwin's big country house not far from Sydney, she wondered why there were no photographs of him about. As soon as she set eyes on him she knew the reason. His face had been badly scarred in an accident. As she grew to know him better she realised that the episode had marked him in more ways than one, for it had left him convinced that women were selfish and worthless and that all who appeared interested in him were only after his money. So it came about that when Trina, herself recovering from an unhappy affair, found that she was falling in love with Andrew, she had before her an exceptionally difficult task in overcoming his suspicion and distrust.
