One night in 1986, an abandoned baby girl is found at Heathrow airport. A year earlier, three girls, Martha, Clio and Jocasta, had met by chance at the start of a backpacking adventure. They travelled together briefly and then separated, swearing to meet again when they returned home. But it would be a long time before they were reunited; not until Kate, the foundling, is a teenager, and the girls are all leading successful lives. Which of them is Kate s mother? And why was she desperate enough to do such a thing? Kate, adopted by a loving family, is desperate to find her birth mother. Engagingly stroppy, ferociously independent, with no clues to follow, no trail to pick up, and against a great deal of kindly and well-meaning advice, she refuses absolutely to give in. Gradually the four lives are drawn together. Jocasta, Martha and Clio rediscover one another and their friendship, and against considerable odds Kate finds what she thinks she wants.Set against a background of journalism, politics and the sexily free-wheeling life of back-packers Thailand, Penny Vincenzi s latest bestseller is read by Jan Francis. |
