Because Cope is a threat to Mrs Boynton, she makes a failed attempt to poison him while on the ship from Trieste to Jaffa.In this adaptation, Cope has an affair with Nadine which is conducted fairly openly. Most of the key events will later take place in Qumran and Jerusalem and not in Petra and Amman. After reading the will, Mrs Boynton takes the children on a surprise trip through Europe and the Holy Land.Mrs Boynton objected to this and persuaded Jefferson Cope (who is in this adaptation the family lawyer) to burn this will, reverting to the first will which left a life interest to Mrs Boynton and then distributed to the children only after her death. There is a prologue involving Elmer Boynton having made a second will leaving his money divided between Mrs Boynton and the children.The adaptation is fairly faithful to the original with the addition of a few sideplots and changes in characters. ![]()
