The Montmaray Journals: #2 The FitzOsbornes in Exile

Product Description

With their island kingdom bombed and over-run by Nazis, Sophie FitzOsborne and her eccentric family must learn to make their way in England - while world war looms ever closer. Living with strict Aunt Charlotte is proving difficult. Veronica isn't getting out of bed, and Henry is a handful. The question of succession must be resolved - will Toby become King? Will Simon find his place in the family? Sophie had dreamed of being presented at Court in shimmering ballgowns, but the reality is proving not to be a fairytale. How can the FitzOsborne girls conform to a rigidly hierarchical - and sexist - Society when they are used to running wild on Montmaray? The FitzOsbornes in Exile offers an enticing glimpse into the glamour of pre-WWII high society, the cut and thrust of politics and diplomacy as nations scramble to take a side, and the hidden depths of a family in exile, struggling to find a place in the world.
