Summary
Cathy Scarlet and Tom Feather have decided to create the best catering company in Dublin. They have the perfect premises, heaps of talent, and even a few contacts - but not everyone seems as pleased by the idea of Scarlet Feather as they are. Tom's parents are disappointed that he has turned his back on the family business.
Cathy's husband buries himself in work, becoming ever more distant, whilst his mother thinks Cathy should stay at home to look after him. And Tom's relationship with his beautiful, ambitious girlfriend becomes fraught as she struggles to realise her dream of becoming a model. As Cathy and Tom strive to maintain their emotional ties amidst catering triumphs and disasters, they are supported - and undermined - by an enchanting cast of classic Binchy characters.

Cosy escapism by Meave Binchy
Where does Scarlet Feather rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Like slipping into a warm bath, all the comfort of characters you have met before, a storey that touches on difficult times but you know all will be alright in the end
What did you like best about this story?
The book is a comforting book to go to sleep to, with the appearance of old friends. You soon know your way round Binchy's Dublin and the people who live there.
What about Kate Binchy’s performance did you like?
Kate Binchey's performance brings the characters to life and softly lulls you to sleep.
Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
The book is warm and cosy only mild drama here.
Any additional comments?
If you need something to lull you to sleep, a book that takes your mind off the troubles of the day, this is a good listen.
