Summary

It was Felix who named it The Birdcage, the tall house in Bristol where Miss Pidgeon lived with her tenant, the beautiful and talented actress Angel, and Angel's daughter, Lizzie. It was Felix whom they all adored and who was so in love with Angel, but while Lizzie longed for a father, Felix had other commitments: to his insecure, possessive wife Marina and to their son Piers, both living at beautiful, mellow Michaelgarth, the family home on the edge of Exmoor. Many years later, when Lizzie comes at last to Michaelgarth and meets Piers for the first time, she finds a family in trouble.

As always - Fabulous!

Another wonderful book from Marcia Willet - I'm working my way through everything she's written - I do that when I find an author that I love.
I'm never disappointed with her descriptive and inventive way of writing - with storylines that don't disappoint and the narration is spot on!
