and ambitious student of currency swaps; at the heart of the City, the steel and limestone palazzo of Damazer House almost overflowed with laughter as Caro and her new friends bought, sold, crunched the numbers and sold again. All through that first year, from April until early October, the sun seemed to splash through the windows and paddle gold fingers through the hair of the chosen. Caro’s mere presence had lightened St Peter’s, and her manager recommended her for promotion a mere eight months after she joined.

      She should have been very happy, and mostly she was. Young Caro had all the joys and sweetmeats that London life could bring in the twenty-first century. She had admiration, a challenging and interesting job which hadn’t even existed a few decades earlier, a colourful collection of international friends, enough money, and a status unthinkable for earlier generations of young, non-royal women. She had, in short, everything … except purpose. For even then, Caroline was too clever, and perhaps too moral, to believe that making money was a purpose.

      So when, at a C of E seminar for City employees, held at a Blitz-battered and restored Wren church, she bumped into Angela, her first emotion was jealousy. Caroline had been drifting – working hard as she drifted, admirably, lucratively, pleasantly. Angela, however, had a vocation. Just as when they’d first met at school, Angela had an intensity, a sense of urgency that beautiful Caroline lacked. Caroline’s world was full of promise, stretching out in the sunshine.
