The Snakestone

Meer over het boek

An abandoned child, Deborah Tanner grows up in the squalor of industrial Birmingham. Her origin's a mystery, she has no one and nothing to call her own, yet a chance meeting with a strolling actor opens up a whole new world for her. Immediately she is drawn to the tawdry glamour of the Victorian stage, where success and failure, heartbreak and triumph now follow in rapid succession until, at last, Deb realises that all her future happiness depends on a man who has always loved her.
