| Summary | Annotation An absorbing, page-turning story about fame and changing fortunes, set in an alternative Victorian world, from the brilliant creator of Worldshaker. 17-year-old Astor thinks she is about to wed the handsome plutocrat Lorrain Swale. But to her horror her mother and step-father abandon her, and she finds herself a lowly governess in the Swale household. Treated with contempt by the whole family, Astor is determined to escape. Help arrives unexpectedly in the form of the charismatic and mysterious Verrol. Together they plunge into the slums of Brummingham and find themselves in a street band, making wild music - a new kind of music that takes the world by storm. But the Swale brothers haven't finished with them yet ... A story of changing fortunes, romance and the power of music. Praise for Worldshaker: 'An enjoyable romp...an atmospheric tale told with humour and a genuine emotional depth.' - Bookseller and Publisher |
