Katherine, Charlotte and Esme. Three girls seeking escape. Against the theatrical backdrop of the Lakes, a real-life drama is played out: One that threatens to destroy the very dream that brought them together, and the close friendship they once enjoyed. Each is captivated by the idea of a travelling theatre. Each pretending to be someone she is not. All are in love with the same man...
Born in Lancashire, I've been a teacher, bookseller and in a mad moment, a smallholder on the freezing fells of the Lake District where I tried my hand at the ‘good life’, kept sheep and hens, various orphaned cats and dogs, built drystone walls, planted a small wood and even learned how to make jam. I now spend the winter in Spain and summer in the UK. I have now published 48 books including many bestselling family sagas and historical novels.

Really enjoyed this book, great to go behind the scenes in a travelling theatre group. To see friendships blossom only to be tested by another person who is selfish and narcisstic. Real twist towards the end but everyone settles down after their stint entertaining the troops.
