The Price of Fame

The post-War shadows are receding - but will they ever disappear?

Love and loss, success and failure, the joy of motherhood and the anguish of rejection - these are the patterns woven into Alison Plantaine's life. But her dedication to the theatre has ensured that her first loyalty will always be to her career. Her son Richard, is old enough to understand that for all her talent Alison most struggles to play the role of mother. Now, having been sent abroad to avoid the horror of war, he returns a rebel and rivals his mother in the theatre world. For, Alison this is the moment she must decide - make way for the sake of her family or stay true to the art that has meant so much to her.
