Moving In by E Leigh
When Alice agrees to go to a school reunion, she has no idea a chance meeting with another old girl, Mary Bartlett, will change her life. Learning that Alice is a milliner, Mary visits her - and starts to confide in her. She appears to understand Alice's worries about her weight- that someone working in the fashion industry should be slim, not virtually a size sixteen; that Alice's fiancee, Robert, might secretly yearn for a svelte wife. Alice is packed off to a clinic that Mary recommends, and while she is gone Mary offers to help Robert with his work. Alice's friends' suspicions about such altruism are brought to a head when they find Mary has quite literally moved in. . .
