Cry for Kit

"Kit, happily married to a wealthy American, still longs for the illegitimate child she was forced to leave eighteen years before. Now widowed, she returns to see her son, but her return awakens long-forgotten emotions both in herself and in her former circle of friends. She is attacked, robbed, and told to get out of town. Bewildered and unhappy, she finds herself fighting not only for her own life, but also for the lives of those she loves best" -- Publisher description.
