Lily-Josephine

Lily-Josephine

by KateSaunders (Author)

Synopsis

Lily-Josephine had a talent for love. Wilful, enchanting and passionate, she was the centre of a charmed universe - until her foolish, indulgent father married again. Like Snow-Drop in Grimms' fairy tale, Lily ran from her jealous stepmother one idyllic summer evening in 1941. She escaped to find sanctuary but, at Randalls, discovered a love far greater than any she had ever known...A generation later, the events set in train that night begin to unravel when Sophie Gently falls in love with Octavius Randall and the bizarre and tragic history linking their families is uncovered. Not until ancient passions and betrayals have been confronted can Lily-Josephine - long gone, but never forgotten - truly be laid to rest.

Media Reviews
I loved Lily-Josephine. Kate Saunders is such a wonderful writer * Jilly Cooper *
An unashamedly sentimental saga that will keep you roaring with laughter and weeping buckets in equal measure... Lily-Josephine is an armchair-and-cocoa novel of the highest order * Daily Telegraph *
It's a farytale and thriller, romance and tragedy, everything that a gripping read should be... one of those books you won't be able to put down, or forget * Woman's Realm *
This novel is driven by passion, lust and unrequited love - and it contains all the classic elements that make a good fairytale * Express *
Lily-Josephine is a vibrant, unpretentious reworking of timeless themes * Helen Dunmore *
