WINNER OF THE HARRY BOWLING PRIZE FOR FICTION.
WHAT IF EVERYTHING YOU KNEW COULD BE TAKEN FROM YOU IN A FLASH?
Rosie has always lived with her eagle-eyed Auntie Maggie and Uncle Bert in their café in Soho, often visited by her mother - the mysterious, and often drunk, Perfumed Lady. Yet, her mother's family - landed gentry who hail from a country estate near Bath - are desperate to get their hands on Sophie and will stop at nothing - even kidnap- to get her...
Will Rosie have to leave the Soho and the neighbours she knows and loves - Great Aunt Dodie, Madame Zelda and Paulette, Sharky, Maltese Joe and the Campini Family who run the delicatessen in Old Compton Street - for good?
Rosie's story continues in The Widow Ginger.
