*Daily Express*
This is definitely the most exciting book that landed on my doormat
this year. Cooper is a major genius... the narrative zips along,
pierced with her characteristically brilliant ear for dialogue and
empathy for human relationships of all kinds. You won't be able to
put it down
*Daily Mail*
Near-magical ability to conjure up a world and populate it with
people for whom you feel a deep affection
*Observer*
To read one of Cooper's books is to escape into an alternative
universe in which all is right with the world
*Guardian*
A fast-paced and enjoyable read
*Sun*
A magnificent portrayal of how a beautiful young girl might become
the first woman ever to win the Grand National
*Spectator*
Classic Cooper: either the perfect beach read or else something to
curl up on the sofa with to keep out the encroaching autumn
chill
*Sunday Express*
Jilly has given more pleasure to more girls and women than anyone
else alive today... Cooper's familiar warmth and irrepressible
humour
*The Lady*
Warmed by the tender characterisation that has made Jilly Cooper a
national treasure

Just the thing for a wet winter weekend
