The three unlikely women escaping from their very different lives to be thrown together first by the necessity of working in a hotel in Cornwall. Then secondly by the plot to steal an old book and (with a little updating) to present it to the world as their own work. Unfortunately, the bizarre circumstances and the characters themselves did not come across as believable enough to do justice to the basic idea. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Fiction.
Romance.
HTML: It's not just writing, it's witchcraft . . . Kirsty flees her brutally abusive husband, Trevor, to take a job as a maid at the Burleston Hotel in Cornwall. She befriends two other new employees at the Burleston: overweight Avril, whose ego is crushed by her domineering family, and pretty, love-starved Bernadette, recently dumped by her upper-class boyfriend. In the hotel library, Kirsty discovers Magdalene, an obscure but utterly compelling volume about the life and times of a passionate, depraved nun. Desperate for extra money for her children, she persuades Avril to join her in rewriting the book and submitting it to a publisher as a new work, while Bernadette poses as the author. A glittering future lies before the three women . . . but are Kirsty, Avril, and Bernadette prepared to pay the price for their success? Is it possible that the malign spirit behind Magdalene is somehow influencing their actions? .No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
