Ten Way Street - Susan Scarlett

Descriere Ten Way Street - Susan Scarlett

\n \nThis is our new governess, said Meggie. She's a nice sort of governess. She called us little horrors.\n \nAnd toads, David chimed in.\n \nBetsy stood on one leg and held the other.\n \nAnd she said we were smug and detestable little beasts.\n \nBeverley Shaw, raised in an orphanage and trained to be a governess, gets her long-awaited first job working for Margot Cardew, a brilliant stage actress (and narcissistic diva), whose three precocious children are sadly used to being little more than their mother's props. With advice from her friend Sarah, Beverley navigates between Margot's exhausted secretary Winkle, her sleazy maid Marcelle, and the handsome Peter Crewdson, whom Margot loves but who is soon taking an interest in Joan of Arc, the spirited young governess he first meets giving the children a piece of her mind.\n \nTen Way Street is the fourth of twelve charming, page-turning romances published under the pseudonym Susan Scarlett by none other than beloved children's author and novelist Noel Streatfeild. Out of print for decades, they were rediscovered by Greyladies Books in the early 2010s, and Dean Street Press and Furrowed Middlebrow are delighted now to make all twelve available to a wider audience.\n \nA writer who shows a rich experience in her writing and a charm Nottingham Journal\n
