Sobre IBD

In 1914 they had been eleven years old; three little girls at St Agatha’s a day school on the South Coast. Fifty years later Dinah beautiful as ever advertises in the national newspapers to find the other two Clare now established with a successful business and Sheila a married woman glossy chic and correct. Can friendship can be taken up where it was left off? What are the revelations - and the dangers - in summoning up childhood?
