Western Australian author
The thrilling and captivating story of a brave young woman chasing her dream despite society's disapproval in 1920s New York.
1918, England.
Armistice Day should bring peace into Leonora East's life. Rather than making cosmetics secretly in her father's chemist shop, Leo hopes to now display her wares openly. Instead, Spanish flu arrives in the village, claiming her father's life. Determined to start over she boards a ship to New York City, where she meets debonair department store heir Everett Forsyth ...
1939, New York City.
Everett's daughter, Alice, a promising ballerina, receives a mysterious letter inviting her to star in a series of advertisements for a cosmetics line. If she accepts she will be immortalised like dancers such as Zelda Fitzgerald, Josephine Baker and Ginger Rogers. Why, then, are her parents so quick to forbid it?
'Vivid detail ... Utterly compelling.'
Good Reading
'... a sweeping historical saga about an inspiring woman tackling society's expectations head on, war paint and all.'
