From Sunday Times Top Ten bestselling author, Katherine Webb, The
English Girl is perfect for fans of Dinah Jefferies, Kate Morton
and Santa Montefiore. In a land full of secrets, you can make your
own rules. Joan Seabrook has fulfilled her lifelong dream to travel
to Arabia and has arrived in the ancient city of Muscat with her
fiance, Rory. Desperate to escape the pain of a personal tragedy,
she longs to explore the desert fort of Jabrin and unearth the
wonders held within. But Oman is a land lost in time, and gaining
permission to explore could prove impossible. Joan's disappointment
is only eased by the thrill of meeting her childhood heroine,
pioneering explorer Maude Vickery, and hearing the stories that
captured her imagination as a child. The friendship that forms
between the two women will change everything. Both have desires to
fulfil and secrets to keep. As their bond grows, Joan is inspired
by the thrill of her new friend's past and finds herself swept up
in a bold and dangerous adventure of Maude's making. Only too late
does she begin to question her actions - actions that will spark a
wild, and potentially devastating, chain of events. 'A compelling
and beautifully written tale of adventure, mystery and love, The
English Girl enthralled me from the first page. Set against the
exotic backdrop of Arabia, Webb brings her world to life with skill
and passion.' Santa Montefiore 'I've loved all Katherine Webb's
books and this is a wonderful addition to my collection. After I
finished, I found myself missing the searing heat and huge blue
skies of the Omani desert.' Kate Riordan Your favourite authors
