After the rape of Janna, she still refuses to give Mark a divorce, so that he can't be free to marry Rose. He is ashamed but still retaliates by pushing for custody of his children and the Castallack children spend several years in Oxford, living with Mark and Rose. Philip is angry and hostile to his father and his illegitimate brothers and vows that as soon as he's old enough he will leave school and go back to Janna. She has returned to Roslyn farm.. her old home, since she had never cared for Penmarric and the upper class life but was happier as a farmer's wife.
Adrian, the younger son of Rose and Mark is most unhappy with the invasion of the rest of the family and their relationship is fraught for some years. Before the war, Rose dies of TB and Mark decides to to back to Cornwall taking all his children. Jan Yves, the youngest son of Janna, conceived in violence, is difficult and only likes William his older half brother. Philip goes to live at Roslyn Farm with his mother, and Adrian leaves school and joins up when War breaks out.
