Scarlet Feather is another wonderful Binchy classic that I simply couldn’t put down after I started reading it. It is about how Cathy Scarlet and Tom Feather, friends and business partners, are trying to make their dreams come true: starting and running the most successful catering business in Dublin. Besides professional issues they also have to face lots of personal problems that get sorted out predictably, but satisfactorily, to everyone’s liking. And there are quite a few problems to sort out: there is Cathy’s husband, Neil, a busy civil rights lawyer, and her awful mother-in-law. There is Tom’s glamorous girlfriend, Marcella, who is willing and determined to sacrifice everything for a model career, his parents who don't warm to the idea of their sons being a caterer instead of following his father in the business. Lots of characters cross each other’s path and influence each other’s lives making the book exciting and interesting right up to the last page that seems to come regrettably quick.
