Author:P.G. Wodehouse
When George, Viscount Uffenham turns the entire family fortune into diamonds and squirrels them away, naturally he forgets where he has hidden the loot and finds himself compelled to let the family seat to stay afloat. So it is that Mrs Cork’s health colony comes into being, providing the perfect setting for crime and young love to flower.
A delightfully witty tale
—— Woman's WeeklyThis is Forster writing at her very best
—— Daily MailHow does it feel to be the mother of a juvenile thug? Or the mother of that thug's hapless victim? It is the pain of such mothers that Margaret Forster explores most brilliantly in her dark, harrowing and extremely topical novel
—— Val Hennessy , Daily MailForster is remarkably honest, skilful and perceptive
—— ObserverMargaret Forster has a remarkable gift for taking huge social issues and welding them into minutely observed human dramas that are perfect portraits of the way we live now...The story grips and the heart bleeds for these good mothers who are, like all mothers, never good enough
—— Polly Toynbee , Sunday Express'McAdam's narrative weaves in virtuoso dialogue as well as genuine warmth-Exhilarating'
