Forget about Cool Britannia and Gallic Chic. Scotland is having a fashion moment... 'Effing marvellous' JILLY COOPER. 'Funny and smart' INDIA KNIGHT. 'Total bliss' DAILY MAIL. London's most glamorous glossy magazine is in trouble. Advertising revenues are non existent, and if editor Laura Lake can't pick them up, she's out of a job. According to those in the know, Scotland is having a fashion moment. Smart spas are offering porridge facials, and a chain of eco-hotels is offering celebrity bagpipe lessons. So Laura's off to a baronial estate in the Scottish Highlands to get a slice of this ultra-high-end market. It's supposed to be gorgeous, glitzy and glamorous. But intrigue follows Laura like night follows day. And at Glenravish Castle a shooting lodge fit for a billionaire Laura finds herself hunting for a scoop that won't just save her job, it could save her life... WHAT READERS ARE SAYING ABOUT WENDY HOLDEN: 'A brilliant, funny read... Perfect escapism from the daily grind' 'Move over Sophie Kinsella there's a new Chick Lit queen in town' 'Escapism in its purest form... A little gem' 'Pure fun, escapism and self indulgence. Delicious!'
I am a huge fan of Holden's sparkling prose and zany, roller-coaster plots stuffed with brilliantly drawn characters. She irreverently skewers social pretentions of all kinds, from those held by hipsters in East London to members of the aristocracy, and there are always tons of memorable one-liners and laugh-out-loud moments... I adored it' * Daily Mail *
Holden's glossy-magazine journalist Laura Lake heads to the Highlands for another witty and entertaining romp around the posher side of British life * Reader's Digest *
