Keating's self-control is crucial to that part of the moral incisiveness of Love For Love which does come through.

In the end, Guy's continued peculations cost him Rex's support, and he goes to prison. After divorcing Guy, Angelica moves in with Rex and his wife Lucy, and on Lucy's death becomes the second Mrs. Geer...
...lawyer in Auchincloss forbears to pass judgment. Instead, he lets Guy Prime, Rex Geer and Angelica do it, in each of the book's three parts. Their testimony conflicts so widely, just as testimony does in courts, that the reader may end up wishing that the author had donned magistrate's robes and handed down a verdict...
