About the book

Katherine, Charlotte and Esme - three girls seeking escape. Each of them is captivated by the idea of a travelling theatre; each is pretending to be someone she is not; all are in love with the same man ... Fleeing from a marriage her ambitious mother has arranged for her, Katherine Cussins throws herself into an acting career. But a scandal threatens to wreck her own life and the happiness of those she loves.Charlotte Gilpin can have any man she wants, and she wants Archie - whoever is standing in her way.The Travelling Players offer Esme Bield a striking contrast to the life of placid duty she has known as a parson's daughter; but can the quiet, trusting girl cope with the consequences? Against the theatrical backdrop of the Lakes, a real life drama is played out: one that threatens to destroy the very dream that brought the three girls together, and the close friendship they once enjoyed.
