'...and we will be like two stars circling about each other, drawn together - a double star...'
It's 1961 and life turns upside-down when 15-year-old Sandra and her family move to the city from their small country town. She's upset to leave behind her beloved piano teacher, her almost-boyfriend Nick Morgan, and especially best friend Emilia.
Heart-searching letters fly between the two girls as Sandra's ambition to be a concert pianist takes a new direction and she is overwhelmed by an unexpected and dangerous friendship.
"...a retro teenage romance with adulthood more than a shadowland on the fringes. Absorbing as a sequel to The Midnight Pianist, excellent as a book on its own." - David Brooks
Candida Baker onThe Midnight Pianist -'A delightful coming-of-age story about first love, teenage dreams and the courage to face reality... all told through a filter of beautiful music.'
