It all comes down to love or money in a harrowing custody battle over
a little girl, set against the glossy backdrop of the magazine and
advertising worlds in 1960s London. A privileged girl from a
privileged class, Eliza has a dazzling career in the magazine world of
the 1960s. But when she falls deeply in love with Matt, an edgy
working-class boy, she gives up her ritzy, fast-paced lifestyle to get
married. By the end of the decade, however, their marriage
has suffered a harrowing breakdown, culminating in divorce and a
dramatic courtroom custody battle over their little girl. Also at risk
is Eliza's gorgeous family home, a pawn in the game, which she can't
bear to give up. True to form, Penny Vincenzi introduces a
devious cast of characters seemingly plucked from the pages of
sixties- and seventies-era magazines, as she deftly maneuvers between
the glamorous, moneyed worlds of fashion and advertising, and a
heart-wrenching custody battle going on in the courtroom where the
social mores of the time are on full display.
