Jeannie Urquhart — Pamela Hill

Jeannie and Edith Urquhart were the daughters of a large and prosperous Glasgow family. Edith was practical and cautious, but Jeannie was impulsive and outgoing, and longed to escape from her respectable middle-class environment. Escape seemed to present itself when she met a young doctor, Alec Davidson, from Aberdeen, and they were married with the blessing of her family. But Jeannie soon found herself hedged by convention and she persuaded Alec to set up practice in London.
