Poor Tessa, having your own father blame you for a thing like that. Incidentally, why does he blame her for the tragedy?
It was a boating accident, I can’t remember details exactly but I believe Tessa and mother fell overboard and although the father blamed Tessa, he was really projecting his own feelings of blaming himself, for freezing up and not saving her mother.
Thank you for the information.
