From the back cover:
Now in their fifties, Liz, Alix and Esther are more than ever disposed to question, to re-evaluate, to examine their motives and directions in the brutally prosperous, atrocity-hungry society of Eighties Britain.
Is Alix's mass-murderer a hideous new phenomenon of he age, or are his roots in the pillaging Romans or the barbaric ancient Britons? Can Esther's experiment with a different love in a distant land, or Shirley's mad escapade, free either from old ways and well-worn habits? And has Liz's life really been not a line, but a circle, drawing her forward to her beginnings?
This is the sequel to The Radiant Way, and I must have read it in the early Nineties when it was released. Can I remember it? Can I ever - what does that say about the book or me?
