Book description
Rose Shawe has a morning programme on BBC Radio Ridings. She also has a
great job, a delightful house, a teeming diary, a lovely daughter, a
clever lover, and a well-concealed past. Once there was a cabaret artist
called Rita Bagshawe who Rose used to know. Not a stripper. Just a
singer with a few dodgy friends who enhanced her finale by shedding a
few garments.
Unfortunately she'd once tossed her garter at a blushing Oxford
undergraduate called Thomas Wilkes. Unfortunately, because sixteen years
on, Tom Wilkes is due to arrive in the Yorkshire town where Rose has so
beautifully constructed her life - and so carefully buried her past.
