Book description
Poppy Meadows has a face of rare beauty. Like most other
nineteen-year-olds, she enjoys life. And, oh, how she loves to dance!
The only blot on her happiness is her dreadful boss in the office where
she works... One rainy day, Poppy is delivering a letter when she fails
to notice two people approaching and is knocked to the ground. The
couple are full of apologies but Poppy brushes aside the young man's
offer to replace her ruined raincoat. As she walks away with her head
held high, Andrew Wilkie-Brook says to his sister Charlotte, 'I wish
she'd let me help, but she wouldn't listen to me.' Someone is listening,
however, and her name is Fate... Joan Jonker was born and bred in
Liverpool. She led a rich and varied life and was devoted to her family.
Before writing novels, she worked tirelessly for the charity-run
organisation Victims of Violence which she founded in 1976. Sadly, Joan
died in 2006, but she is remembered fondly by her family and friends and
her multitude of fans.
