Review
'Pilcher's storytelling skills are serene and beguiling' The Times 'It's never too soon to discover Rosamunde Pilcher' Good Housekeeping 'Her genius is to create characters you really care for' Daily Express
Her most and best yet - Rosamunde Pilcher is a younger practitioner of that older form the romance, and this time tells a pleasantly circumambient story primarily about Flora, who reluctantly agrees to be dubbed in as Rose, her just discovered twin sister. (Their parents had parted them at birth - she'd stayed with her father.) The imposture is in a good cause - Rose's presumed fiance, Antony, whom she's been loving and leaving in an impromptu fashion, has a dying grandmother, Tuppy, who would like to see her again. Tuppy's an appealingly tart-tongued old lady and Flora proves to be everything Rose should have been except Antony's wife. There's a more deserving locum at hand. . . . Utterly agreeable - the right book for when you take your hair down or put it up at the end of the day. (Kirkus Reviews)
