The Daily Telegraph had this to say.
"Ewing... weaves a plot as complex as fair-isle knitting, darting teasingly between past and present, and fastens off all the threads so that the pattern is satisfyingly complete."
A handful of professional actors and actresses get together for a drama school reunion. There's beautiful brittle Juliet; mother of three, Pauline, overshadowed by her ebullient actor husband Anthony; sexy soap star Molly; the three wise monkeys Emmy Lou, Franny and dear old Harry; sweet Izzy; and the gorgeous, famous film star Terence Blue, heart throb extraordinaire.
With such a potential mix how can any book fail and this one certainly doesn't.
Perceptive, poignant, clever and funny, this is a superb and rich novel of a time, and an age that comes to us all.
