Details

The summer she was fifteen, Melanie stole out into the moonlit garden wearing only her mother's wedding dress. She felt drunk on her imagination, caught up in yards of cool satin and the endless night sky. Surprised by her own daring, she threw off the dress and climbed up an apple tree back to the safety of her bedroom. But tragic news would shatter her romantic world. Overnight, Melanie would be cast adrift to London and the shocking truths of The Magic Toyshop.
