Description: "The Hot Year was a wartime year; it was also the year in Lucy Slade's life which took her from St. John's Wood to Delhi and Rangoon and back again, changed and a little chastened, but at heart wiser and gladder than when she had set out. It seemed like two hundred years, so much had happened: marrying Miles Spender and meeting Steve McMahon, to begin with, and the endless predicaments in which Lucy's impulsive, scatter-brained nature landed her in India that was still British, and the continual round of parties with the Forces, which it was Lucy's patriotic duty to attend."--Publisher description.
