My Friends VI. The island of St, Jago is volcanic - in more ways than one. Events there do not merely happen, they erupt. The arrival of Martha's Aunt from New York proved to be an 'event'. At first this self-centred old hag settles into the pattern of idle life available to rich visitors to the Peak Hotel in Jago Bay. And it takes a little time for Scots ex-pat Janet and Twice to realise that although she is the aunt of her friend Martha, she is also a disaster. With the unerring accuracy of the chronically inept, Martha's Aunt sparks drama in the lives of those around her and in particular, in Linda Lee's beauty parlour and in the 'Solace In The Sun' religious establishment run by the dubious Dr. Arias. Janet and Twice are, of course, up to their necks and their friends Sir Ian, Sandy MacLean and other characters at the Paradise Plantation make contributions to the the mayhem of varying usefulness.
