A much married man
(Book)

First published: London : Orion, 2006.

Social satire in the manner of Edith Wharton or Anthony Trollope. A man of wealth and privilege, Anthony Anscombe has everything he could ever want: an exquisite family estate, enviable social standing, and a desirable inheritance. But with all of his money and privilege, Anthony still has an aching desire for one thing: the perfect match. Running headlong into marriage is Anthony's forte--and his greatest weakness. As Anthony surveys Winchford Priory, his beautiful Elizabethan house in the English countryside, he has the distinct feeling that he's under siege. And he's absolutely right. Lurking in the village are more than one or two reminders of his complicated past, including three ex-wives, a mistress, and a legion of children and stepchildren, all dependent on him and all determined to do whatever it takes to get what they want.--From publisher description.
