Dear Tyrant — Henrietta Reid

When Mike Kendall let her down, Helen felt she had to get away from everything and try to recover-and the job as secretary to Max
Renton looked like filling the bill. "lt might be interesting", she said to herself, "to show Mr. Renton that there's at least one female in the world who's not ready to jump to his bidding!"

Indeed the combination of Max's stimulating attitude, and the peace and beauty of the Kent countryside, did their work well, and Helen began to feel her old self again.
