Mandolins of Montori — Iris Danbury

Suddenly the chance had come to Grentha to work at Montori for a few months helping to sort and collate the vast accumulation of letters, essays and papers of a world-famous American art collector and historian. And it was here that she met Mervyn -- and Craig, who at Vietri had given her the china donkey, To give a china donkey to a girl was locally taken to mean that the man who gave it was giving her his love.. But wasn't it possible that Craig had also given china donkeys to all those other girls whose names he claimed to have tucked away in his little black book -- just to remind them not to make fools of themselves over him.
