With rumours swirling of his parentage, Frank Brigandshaw wants answers: Who put horns on his father's head? Returning to England, Frank is heading down two paths. One to make them, the ménage à trois a trifle uncomfortable and admit the truth. The other, to make money and lots of it. And so like father like son, it seems Frank will succeed until he meets Connie Whitaker. Meantime, Frank's siblings are making their own way in a city that is recovering from the fallout of war. Amongst the jazz set and artists living in Chelsea, Beth falls in love with a man who doesn't love her; Dorian finds himself with a worrying dilemma and Kim sets off on his travels to India. However, when they are all summoned to Hastings Court, everything the young Brigandshaws have come to love is about to unravel, threatened with collapse and truths are revealed. With the flame of empire about to go out, along with crippling taxes, the enduring Brigandshaws strive to make their way in a new Britain in this next instalment of Peter Rimmer's historical fiction series, the seventh in the epic saga of the Brigandshaws, Horns of Dilemma.

Autorenporträt
Peter Rimmer was born in London, England, and grew up in the south of the city where he went to school. After the Second World War, aged eighteen, he joined the Royal Air Force, reaching the rank of Pilot Officer before he was nineteen. At the end of his National Service, he sailed for Africa to grow tobacco in what was then Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe. The years went by and Peter found himself in Johannesburg where he established an insurance brokering company. Over 2% of the companies listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange were clients of Rimmer Associates. He opened branches in the United States of America, Australia and Hong Kong and travelled extensively between them. Having lived a reclusive life on his beloved smallholding in Knysna, South Africa, for over 25 years, Peter passed away in July 2018. He has left an enormous legacy of unpublished work for his family to release over the coming years, and not only they but also his readers from around the world will sorely miss him. Peter Rimmer was 81 years old.
