Her best book yet!
As the best saga and nostalgic fiction writer out there, you would expect this book to be good, and it doesn't dissappoint. Set primarily in a 1960's Leicester hotel, the book revolves around it's two main characters - newly promoted receptionist Connie and Edelina - the hotel's new owner.

Supported by a strong cast of supporting characters (including Edelina's wonderfully funny society girl best friend Sophia- think a drugless and less alcoholic Patsy from Ab Fab) and a strong intrigue filled plot, this book is Lynda Page's best book yet!
