Cammy Fittleworth

A great, good-natured countess with liquid eyes and a will, she guards her protégées and tolerates Sylvia only so far.

Also known as Fittleworth, Cammie

As a supporting figure in The Last Post, Cammy Fittleworth is not background color—the story leans on what they do once the chapter opens.

Lady Fittleworth—Cammie—presides over a household of charitable schemes and social authority, married to a man whose hounds and temper she manages with quiet firmness. She protects young American women like Helen Lowther under her roof, and her displeasure is a force Sylvia must calculate against. Her tolerance of Sylvia has limits, and those limits shape the social pressure closing in on the Tietjens' arrangements.
