She was politically active and long involved with the women's [[feminism|liberation movement]], at a time when that required compromising with men in power. | ||
The Waverly family were old friends of [[Ian Gilmore]]. | |||
She was unable to have children. Her husband, [[Charles Waverly]], 'volunteered' her for a eugenics programme to create advanced soldiers; the resulting child, [[Emma Waverly]], was largely kept away from her. Charles also had a large number of affairs in later years but the Waverly's lived together for appearences. | |||
In July [[1965]], she found what her husband had done to Emma and murdered him for it. She hid the guilt. | |||
She still returned to Westminster a day after the funeral to see a friend be appointed to Lords. [[Templeton]] would patronise her in 1965 that if her father hadn't died in 1953 (ten years before peerage laws changed), she'd have inherited his seat in the [[House of Lords]]; she put him down sharply and expressed displeasure with how few female politicians there were. | |||
After the funeral, she learned that Emma was capable of shapeshifting into a male form and was mentally unstable, and eventually came clean to Gilmore about the situation. Afterwards, she handed documents on her husband's co-conspirators to Sir Toby - which included his own name. She then ''allegedly'' committed [[suicide]] because of her guilt, with Sir Toby as the only witness. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Manhunt (audio story)|Manhunt]]'') | |||
