Dorothy Dunnett Quote
Danny said, ‘I didn’t tell you the other side, because you know it. You and I don’t have a family. They have. They were brought up together. They need each other, and support each other. It’s too late to change any of that. Whether he ever marries again or not, Francis has that; and if anything happens to him, the rest of the family have each other. You won’t get him now, Marthe,’ said Danny Hislop. ‘Now that you want him. He belongs to them. It’s too late. And I don’t think you would be allowed to try it.
