Following on from her impressive debut novel, Ruth, Margaret Clark picks up the family story once again, this time focusing on Ruth’s daughter, Katie.
Katie apparently has much to look forward to when she meets the handsome Captain Peter Cain and becomes the international travelling companion to Madame Junot. However, a chain of catastrophic events and illicit temptations lie in store and the author takes the reader on a roller coaster ride across Europe, America and Cuba.
Secret upon secret is waiting to be dramatically unfurled as this eventful novel hurtles towards its climax.
