The sparkling new novel from Caroline Bishop, author of The Other
Daughter. Perfect for fans of Tracy Rees, Elizabeth Noble and
Rachel Hore. ***************** 1957, France. *****************
Florence and Lilli meet at finishing school in Lyon. Despite some
differences, they forge a firm friendship that promises to last a
lifetime. But a terrible betrayal prematurely tears them apart.
Years later in England, Florence has become the woman her friend
knew she could be - creative, bold, and independent. The exact
opposite of Alice, a young woman troubled by a recent trauma, whom
Florence is determined to help bring out of her shell. Just as
Lilli once did for her. When Florence discovers that the novel
she's reading is written by Lilli and is based on their time at
school, the two stories begin to unfold together. Past events
illuminate the future, and it becomes clear that long-held secrets
can't stay buried for ever. Praise for The Lost Chapter'Caroline
Bishop is a wonderful storyteller, crafting characters who step off
the page and writing beautifully of female friendship. This is a
kind, wise and inspiring novel and its conclusion left me smiling.'
