Product Description

Book Description

Casilda Montero is the beautiful and hot-blooded daughter of a wealthy Spanish aristocrat. Sent from the family hacienda in Southern Spain to an English boarding school, she befriends Joscelin Howard, a shy and serious English girl. Set against the looming tragedy of the Spanish Civil War and the rising menace of Fascism in Europe, their enduring friendship is a constant reference point in both their lives. Complex passions draw each girl into the drama and grandeur of aristocratic Europe. From the carefree glamour of London high society to the devastation of the battlefields in Spain, Casilda, Joscelin and their families are tragically linked by passion and bloodshed. "REVIEW; 'Graphic descriptions of war and peace, three-dimensional characters (particularly the hot-blooded Cassy) and sustained excitement make this Claire Lorrimer's best novel to date' (Annabel) AUTHBIO: Claire Lorrimer began writing at the age of ten, encouraged by her mother who was also an author. Her post on the editorial team of a woman's magazine gave her a unique insight into the world of publishing, but it was during the Second World War that her writing career became established. She produced romantic short stories and serials for Woman's Illustrated and later penned some sixty light romantic novels. Although her first love was children's books, she could not find a publisher for her work and turned to historical fiction. These historical novels are characterised by meticulous detail and feeling for the period, often highlighting the situation of women. Claire Lorrimer lives in rural Kent, and still writes stories and plays for her friends and grandchildren. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
