'Sweeps you away to an Ireland of the past and leaves you
utterly enthralled' MARIAN KEYES
A dazzling, sumptuous historical novel from the author of
Liberty Silk
Kate Beaufoy has an MA in French and English literature from
Trinity College Dublin. She began her career as a professional
actor before becoming a full-time writer. As Kate Thompson she has
had a dozen novels published, including the number one bestseller
THE BLUE HOUR which was shortlisted for the RNA award.
LIBERTY SILK was her first historical novel. It was inspired by
real letters written from Europe by her grandmother, Jessie
Beaufoy, in the aftermath of the Great War.
Kate scuba dives to an advanced level and is in thrall to her
Burmese cat.
With a marvellously evocative setting, strong and believable lead
characters and a pacey plot, Another Heartbeat in the House is a
great read.

enthralled.

Everything is alive in Kate Beaufoy's new novel: the slang of a
former era rings authentically, a house has a personality, a dog
has a voice. If you're looking for an absorbing, delicious
well-told tale in which to lose yourself, this is it.
