Fiona Hardingham delivers Simonson's latest novel. In England in 1919, life has returned to a postwar normal. But Orphaned Constance worries about her future. What will she do when her current position as gentle Mrs. Fog's companion ends? Poppy is young, confident and eager to help her disabled brother. Hardinghan's tone of humility and empathy provides balance to Poppy's impulsive efforts to change the world. Hardingham's talent brings even secondary characters like the snobbish Lady Mercer; German waiter Klaus; Jock, the mechanic; and the mysterious Mr. Pendra to life. Most importantly, Hardingham keeps the large cast of characters distinguishable in this historical fiction enhanced with dashes of humor, romance, and shifting societal expectations.
