Far Sanctuary

When Emma Redfern arrived at Tangier on a golden July afternoon, it should have been journey’s end which promised lovers’ meeting. Yet within as many days as she had been counting to her marriage, she was to find herself virtually alone there. But not quite friendless. For in the brilliant pioneer of Maritime-Air she found a man to whom she could always turn with trust, and never in vain, even when the impersonal help he gave her conflicted with the more romantic rights claimed by the lovely Spanish widow, Leonore de Coria. Tangier, the colourful gateway between East and West, though alien and menacing at first, at last was to be for Emma ‘the far place that was also home’, the background of a love which came upon her unawares.
